CANTON, GA – June 23, 2020 – Highfield Boats, the world’s leading manufacturer of aluminum RIBS and tenders, is pleased to announce the appointment of four new dealer representatives serving boaters in South Carolina, Georgia, Kentucky, and Alaska. This major expansion of the Highfield USA dealer network has been prompted by growing demand for Highfield’s high-quality RIBs ranging from 6 ½ to 28 feet, resulting in record U.S. sales for the first half of 2020.

The increased sales we have been seeing in the U.S. market this year demonstrate this investment in our product line has paid off.”
