Meet Hugh, he is Quintrex’s biggest fan and is only 3 years old. Born with a passion for boats and trailers, Hugh proudly dressed up for kindy book week as a Quintrex 420 Explorer Trophy, his favourite boat from the Quintrex Brochure.
While other kids are dressed up as superheros and tv characters, Hugh stood out of the crowd and was the teachers favourite in his Quintrex 420 Explorer Trophy costume.
Growing up, Hugh took every chance he could to play with boats. Full of creativity, he built a fleet of Lego trucks, boats and trailers. He would take his creations outside and set sail in the big puddles around his home.
If he was lucky, Grandma and Grandpa would leave their Quintrex Renegade in the drive way, his favourite playground. This was Hugh’s chance to open every hatch, turn every knob, flick every switch and climb over every inch of the boat.
Anytime Amanda (Hugh’s mother) takes him out for a drive, she needs to leave early because Hugh will ask to stop by the local boat ramp. Completely mesmerised by all the boats, he points out every Quintrex and can tell which drivers need more practice backing up a trailer.
Hugh’s love for the Quintrex 420 Explorer Trophy started when Amanda was reading a bedtime story and Hugh asked his mom for a book about boats. So Amanda set out down to Barclay Marine and found the perfect book, a Quintrex Brochure.
It was a dream come true for Hugh, pictures of beautiful boats from front to back and catchy phrases that make sweet dreams about one day being in his favourite boat.
Bed time stories include Hugh and Amanda telling stories to each other about the pictures, catch phrases and descriptions. Hugh’s imagination never stops, making up fascinating stories about exciting boating adventures on every page of the Quintrex Brochure.
When the lights go out, he slips his favourite book under his pillow and falls asleep dreaming about the Quintrex 420 Explorer Trophy.
‘He knows every part of the boat’ said Amanda ‘he loves to point out where the motor is, the propeller and the electric motor of the Quintrex’.
‘He is already turning into quite the fisho!’ said Hugh’s Grandfather ‘catching Flatheads and Whitings’.
After years of research, Quintrex has released the Apex Hull design set to revolutionize the boating industry. From humble beginnings in 1945 Quintrex has remained the leader in aluminium boat research and development for over 70 years. True to its name, the Apex Hull offers the pinnacle of boating with years of research and development leading to superior performance on the water – You have never seen a boat quite like this before!
Our blade hull cuts through rough water like a knife with its sharper, sleeker shape and increased deadrise. By releasing spray further aft you get an even drier ride, and if that’s not enough our blade hull has increased hull efficiency by balancing the convex and concave shapes offering lower planning speeds and improved top-end speed!
The concave shape of the flared bow is made possible by our unique ability to stretch form aluminium. The curve of side sheets deflects spray and keeps passengers dry. In rougher conditions such as in breaking seas and solid water the flared bow aids in lift and recovery.
This hull combines the stability of a traditional punt with the handling of a v-shaped hull. Its v-nose design allows the wide beam to be brought forward to the bow. This design allows for all-round stability, aids planning and disperses choppy water.
Our fighter series features a forked shaped bow which not only sees the front deck and casting platform area increased by up to 11% but improves stability at rest – making fishing from the casting platform a breeze. The fighter series is the new face of fishing with more storage and easy installations of electric motors. **
