A Hull for Every Water - Quintrex Patented Technology

Great things take time

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!

Blade Hull

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

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.

Fighter Series Bow

Fighter Series Bow

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.
