Thanks to a collaboration between Highfield Boats and Pure Watercraft, a new line of environmentally friendly electric aluminum-hull rigid inflatable boats (RIBs) is being released.

Two models, the Pure Watercraft by Highfield Classic 360 and the Pure Watercraft by Highfield Classic Deluxe 380, feature the Pure Outboards that are silent and produce no emissions. With a top speed of 25 mph and two battery packs, the outboards can last for a while — go 68 miles at a speed of 3 mph. 

“We are excited to partner with such an innovative company and to collaborate on a series of boats designed to aid the environment at the same time they are providing owners with hours of boating fun,” says Highfield Boats General Manager Tom Watson. “Whether they are used as primary boats or as tenders, these silent, zero-emissions, virtually maintenance-free RIBs are sure to deliver a premium boating experience.”
