Highfield PRT: The Challenge of Customizing Response Boats

Highfield Boats is launching a division dedicated to patrol, rescue, and response boats. Called Highfield PRT, it comprises three model lines ranging from 3.80 to 11 meters. The goal goes beyond simply supplying the boats: the manufacturer also aims to streamline their customization and technical support.

A division dedicated to professional applications

With Highfield PRT, the RIB manufacturer is consolidating its operations for government agencies, emergency services, and commercial operators. The new division is led by Julien Carussi, with Stefanie Sun serving as head of operations. It must meet specifications that differ from those of the recreational boating sector, particularly with regard to onboard equipment, availability, and maintenance.

Three product lines for distinct applications

The offer includes the Viper , lightweight tires ranging from 3.80 to 5.80 m that are suitable for rapid deployment, and the Raptor , RIBs ranging from 6.60 to 8.70 m designed for intensive professional use. The family Sentinel consists of vessels ranging from 6 to 11 meters in length, equipped with Type D floats?either inflatable or foam-filled. This mix allows the fleet to handle a variety of mission profiles, from one-off interventions to operations requiring larger vessels.

Highfield PRT also offers customization, training, spare parts, and after-sales service. For boat owners, these services can be just as important a factor in choosing a boat as its on-water performance.
