Highfield Ultralite 290LT
The UL290LT is built to accommodate up to a 15hp engine, allowing you and up to three other passengers to travel further. It features 17" large diameter tubes (LT) for greater stability and buoyancy compared to the SS version. As the name suggests, the Ultralites' lightweight design makes them a great alternative for those who might have previously chosen a soft bottom tender but now prefer the performance of a hard hull. Ultralite tenders are spacious and durable, yet light and easy to transport. These small boats can be launched and retrieved by a single person and can be easily transported on a roof rack. The UL hull is made from 2.5mm thick powder-coated marine grade aluminum, and the tubes are constructed from 1100 Decitex Valmex® PVC or Orca® Hypalon material, cut and assembled to precise standards. The simple layout of the UL, with its uncluttered design and numerous standard accessories, makes the UL series one of the best values in inflatable boats.
