2026 Highfield Sport 560 Boat in Newport, RI 02840 US

The Highfield Sport 560 is the flagship of Kirby Marine's Sport range - an 18-foot 7-inch performance RIB that delivers everything serious boaters on Narragansett Bay and the New England coast demand: a deep-V aluminum hull that handles chop with authority, a premium console setup built for all-day use, and enough power to get where you are going and get back safely when conditions deteriorate. Built on a high-tensile powder-coated aluminum hull in grey with ORCA Hypalon tubes in Arctic Grey, the Sport 560 has a purposeful, aggressive look on the water that matches its capability. The 24-degree deadrise cuts cleanly through wind chop and wake, the self-draining cockpit keeps things dry underway, and the 27.7-gallon built-in under-deck fuel tank gives you the range to make a full day of it without a stop at the fuel dock. At 1,280 lbs. boat weight, it trailers easily behind a full-size pickup or large SUV and launches single-handed from any ramp.

This particular Sport 560 is built to a specification that leaves very little on the options list. Power comes from a Mercury 115HP outboard - the maximum rated horsepower for the hull - delivering strong, responsive performance across the rpm range and backed by Kirby Marine's status as an authorized Mercury service center. The full console is paired with a fabric T-top on grey legs, providing genuine all-weather protection at the helm without sacrificing sightlines or the open, airy feel that makes a RIB a RIB. The integrated rear seat, hydraulic steering system with wheel, platform with boarding ladder, rollbar, and sundeck round out a cockpit that works as hard for a family day at anchor as it does for an offshore run to Block Island. Dark grey and Diamante Carbon upholstery with grey and black EVA foam teak flooring give the interior a refined, cohesive finish that punches well above the boat's price point. The Gold Series stereo with four XS 6.5-inch cockpit speakers and a pair of Fusion tower speakers on the rollbar ensures the soundtrack matches the experience from departure to return. Arrives on an EZ Loader trailer with tongue jack - ready to launch.
