Highfield Boats Australia will host the Asia-Pacific debut of the highly anticipated Highfield ADV7, which made its global premiere at boot Düsseldorf in January.

The Highfield ADV7 is the product of a successful collaboration with the renowned design and engineering studios, VOM Creations and Alpha Studio in Ljubljana, with naval architecture expertly handled by Andrej Justin.

Every detail of the ADV7 has been carefully designed to enhance functionality, performance, usability, comfort, and quality, while preserving the distinctive Highfield rugged identity and renowned sea-keeping capabilities. The hull features a deep-V design with a fine entry and 22 degrees of transom deadrise.

Designed to comfortably accommodate up to eight people, the ADV7 is ideal for both adventurous excursions and family leisure time. Among its many innovative features are two large sundecks for improved comfort, offering ample space for relaxation and sunbathing. The 2-metre internal beam ensures plenty of room for family, friends, and their gear during extended days on the water. The aft section serves as the perfect social space for entertaining and dining at anchor, and an optional marine toilet ensures that longer trips remain comfortable for all.

“We’re thrilled to launch the new ADV7 in Australia, which has already received critical acclaim in Europe and the US,” said Peter Pembroke of Highfield Boats Australia. “The ADV7 is truly revolutionary in the rigid inflatable market, offering the perfect blend of a hard-working RIB with the sleek style and performance of a sporty runabout. It’s a perfect match for Australian boating conditions.”

We’re also excited to show the Highfield Sport 800, which boasts a spacious layout and impressive on-water performance. This will be the first time we’re showcasing a Highfield of this size.”
