Constructed with a 2.5mm thick high-tensile chromated and powder-coated aluminum hull, the UL-240 offers the durability to withstand rocky beaches and rough handling while weighing significantly less than its fiberglass competitors.

Superior Marine Durability
The Highfield UL-240 in Grey PVC is designed for longevity. The aluminum hull is chromated and powder-coated to prevent corrosion and oxidation, while the high-quality Valmex® PVC tubes provide excellent air retention and UV resistance. Its deep-V hull design ensures it tracks better and provides a drier ride than traditional roll-up inflatable boats with flat bottoms or air floors.
