Highfield Classic 380 FCT
Our CL380 with FCT Console can accommodate up to 7 people and is powered by engines up to 30hp. It includes a standard bow locker ideal for storing your fuel tank or additional equipment. Despite its luxurious appearance, this range of tenders is designed for robust performance. The durable aluminum hull, along with a full-length keelguard, ensures durability during beach-hopping days with friends and family.
Compared to equivalent fiberglass RIBs, the weight savings result in impressive performance with smaller engines. With a range of sizes available, the Classic range truly offers a tender suitable for everyone.
The FCT steering console option, available for CL310 and longer CL Series boats, transforms the Classic into an easy-handling runabout, perfect for enjoying activities after anchoring for lunch. The raised deck ensures dry feet and gear. Welded davit lifting eyes on the deck facilitate effortless launching and towing, while a heavy-duty rub strake with a spray-deflecting profile provides peace of mind when docking.
