Quintrex's New Blade Hull Cuts Through Anything

QUINTREX’S NEW BLADE HULL CUTS THROUGH ANYTHING

The Blade Hull is Quintrex’s latest innovative new hull design to hit the market and it’s already making a name for itself as the smoothest, driest ride yet. 

The Blade Hull which features across most of the new 2013 Quintrex Range has done away with ‘clinker’ style pressings in favour of new smooth look, side sheets. 

The Blade Hull is created using advanced design software, virtual modelling and stretch forming technology resulting in a concave flare in the side and bottom sheets offering a smooth and stable ride at rest and underway. 

With increased hull efficiency the Blade Hull sees boats perform better on lower horsepower with lower planning speeds and improved top-end speed. 

Fine tuning the balance of convex and concave shapes the new Blade Hull cuts through choppy water and deflects spray with ease.  

The new Blade Hull also features a sharper deadrise and narrow shoulder for the ability to handle all water conditions.

Quintrex National Account Manger Cameron Wood said the new Blade Hull combined with the famous Flared Bow and the new smooth side pressings meant it was the most advanced Quintrex hull design ever.

 ‘There have been big changes for Quintrex this year with one of the biggest being the introduction of the new hull and the move to the modern plate look side. It has really given the range a fresh look- I don’t think customers will be able to resist the upgrade to a newer model.’

‘The Blade Hull performs with a near zero nose high attitude which is great for visibility at slower speeds and getting onto and coming off the plane is a breeze,’ Cameron said.

The New Blade Hull is featured across various models in the new 2013 Quintrex Range, for more information on the entire Quintrex Range head to www.quintrex.com.au

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!

Flared Bow

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. **

**The fighter series bow can now be seen across the hornet range and on explorer models 390 and above.
