Quintrex Partners with Trade School to Find New Talent To recruit their next generation of boat builders Quintrex has again joined forces with The Australian Industry Trade College, an Independent Senior College with a trade focus.
On completion, Quintrex AITC apprentices gain a certificate III in Engineering-Fabrication Trade while also completing their senior school certificate.
Small Boat Factory Manager Mark Stambera says “Cooperation with the AITC over a number of years has allowed us to recruit the most promising school-based apprentices who often continue to have long term careers with Quintrex”
Students at AITC have a 4 week rotational timetable; 4 weeks working in their trade followed by 4 weeks studying at AITC. The curriculum focuses on core subjects, English, Maths, IT and Business in order to complete their senior school certificate.
Case Manager Camille Carroll from AITC says “The rotational timetable of four weeks on four weeks off gives the students the best of both worlds , completing on average 30% of their apprenticeship by the time they finish their senior school certificate”
Current AITC student and 2nd year Quintrex apprentice Brandon Mardesic spoke to new apprentices during a factory tour to give them a feel for what their new job will entail and an informed description of what life is like working for Quintrex.
“On average I construct 3 to 4 small boats a day, ranging in size from 2.4 – 4.2 meters. We make on average 17 – 25 boats a day in the small boats factory. ”
“It’s great being an apprentice, I am learning the necessary skills for my trade and completing part of my apprenticeship while finishing school, which gives me a head start on my career.”
Quintrex is always on the lookout for enthusiastic and motivated apprentices, ready to kick start their career just like Brandon. If you believe you have what it takes to become a Quintrex apprentice please email your CV through to jobs@telwater.com
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. **
In today’s boating world, there are many factors to consider when buying a boat and seemingly endless options to support them. One of the age old comparisons was that of aluminium vs fibreglass and the benefits each had over the other. It’s no secret that for a long time fibreglass held the mid-large boat market but advancements in technology in the aluminium boat space have changed everything. So, without further ado, here’s our top five reasons why aluminium boats have now got the edge over fibreglass.
