Honda Marine UK and Highfield Boats Join Forces at Southampton Boat Show 2025

Honda Marine UK and Highfield Boats will present a united display at this year’s Southampton Boat Show, running from 19 to 28 September. On stand P090, visitors can explore new models and UK debuts from both brands, highlighting their long-standing partnership.

Highfield Boats will unveil the ADV7, a 7-metre crossover boat powered by Honda’s BF250 outboard. This marks the UK debut of the model, which seats up to eight passengers. Alongside, Honda Marine will showcase its latest V6 BF250 and upgraded 4-cylinder engines, with significant design and performance enhancements appearing in the UK for the first time.

The event also features the introduction of the Sporty White version of Honda’s flagship BF350 V8, the company’s most powerful and technologically advanced outboard.

Highfield will display five boats paired with Honda outboards:

• Sport 900 with BF350 – the largest cruising RIB in the range, carrying up to 19 people.
• Patrol 760 with BF250 – designed for long-range cruising and offshore teams.
• ADV7 with BF250 – the new crossover boat making its UK debut.
• Sport 420 with BF60/80 – a versatile family dayboat or luxury tender.
• Coaster 54 with BF100 – a new family-friendly RIB offering accessible boating.

Honwave inflatables will also be on show, including the T38IE BF20SHU, T35AE BF20SHU and T32IE BF15SHU, each optimised for smaller Honda engines up to 30 hp.

The open stand has been designed for accessibility, with walk-around viewing, seating, and a sheltered central area under three stretched fabric sails. Half of the space will highlight the Honda-Highfield packages, with the remainder showcasing alliance boats fitted with Honda engines.

Honda Marine and Highfield Boats emphasise their commitment to delivering reliable packages that combine advanced engineering with practical craftsmanship, making boating enjoyable and accessible to a wide audience.
