The Quintrex 670 Offshore SDD (Stern Drive Diesel) took out the prestigious 2008 AMIF award for “Fishing Trailerable Boat of the Year (Aluminium Over 6m)” on Thursday 22nd May, 2008.

The brand’s flagship model began its winning streak in early May, when it was named Modern Boating magazine’s “Aluminium Boat of the Year”.

Quintrex National Sales & Marketing Manager Damien Duncan said the award was a wonderful acknowledgment of the 670 Offshore SDD.

“With five other high performing aluminium boats vying for the title, the 670 Offshore SDD’s win was a significant achievement,” Damien said.

“This award along with the Modern Boating win acknowledges Quintrex as Australia’s leading aluminium fishing boat manufacturer over six metres.

“The 670 Offshore SDD is a huge credit to our research and development team who developed the concept of an aluminium light-weight trailerable game-fishing boat into this award winning model,” he said.

The 670 Offshore SDD and the Offshore Series was launched at Melbourne Boat Show last year and is currently taking part in the Quintrex Offshore Relay from Brisbane to Melbourne (Sunday 18th May - Sunday 29th June, 2008) in support of the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia.
