Highfield Boats, the world’s leading manufacturer of aluminum rigid inflatable boats (RIBS) and tenders, has appointed Hodgdon Yacht Services, located in the Boothbay region of Maine, as its newest dealer. Hodgdon will represent the full line of Highfield RIBS from 6 to 26 feet throughout its home state.

“We’re very pleased to announce that Hodgdon Yacht Services is Maine’s first Highfield Boats dealer. Highfield Boats offers RIB tenders built with performance and strength in mind and we’re excited to be able to offer this to our customers,” said Audrey Hodgdon, director of sales and marketing.

Hodgdon Yacht Services has two locations: Hodgdon Marina in Boothbay Harbor and Southport Boatyard in Southport. The company offers an extensive range of marine services including fuel, dockage and moorage, boat storage, service, and refit, as well as serving as a dealer for Suzuki and Yamaha outboards.

“Highfield Boats has experienced meteoric sales growth in the U.S. over the past three years. Our new Highfield Sport RIBS, which launched in 2020, have quickly become the ‘go-to’ luxury tenders for a wide variety of sailing and motoryachts,” said Tom Watson, general manager, Highfield USA. “The Maine coast is certain to be a highly popular cruising area this summer. We are delighted to welcome Hodgdon Yacht Services, which has roots in the state that go back over 200 years, to the Highfield family.”
