Our unique ability to stretch form aluminium allows us to create shapes only
previously made in fibreglass, delivering the softest, driest riding aluminium
boats on the market.
Many years of studious research have set Quintrex on the course to revolutionising the boating industry with the Apex Hull design. Since 1945, Quintrex has retained its leadership in the research and development of aluminium boats. Quintrex takes the helm of aluminium boat revolution with its unique ability to stretch, shape and form aluminium at will. The Apex Hull design offers the pinnacle of Quintrex's fruitful research and development, leading to superior performance on the water - you have never seen a boat quite like this before!
Harder, Better, Stronger
On top of providing ultimate on-water performance, the Apex Hull is truly built to last. With 4mm bottom sheets and 3mm side sheets of pressed marine-grade aluminium, the Apex Hull delivers increased strength from the outside and in. The revolutionary hull design delivers an unparalleled ride and user-experience throughout both inland and offshore waterways. The 630 size models are further elevated with a standard 5mm upgrade on hull density.
Leading Design
The Apex Hull is renowned for its revolutionary design, and Quintrex boats stand out in terms of appearance and practical performance on the water. Quintrex is synonymous with delivering modern, ground-breaking designs, including the industry-first forked and Flared Bow. The sleek windscreen profile and sporty-look of the Apex Hull represents the truly unique and iconic Quintrex style.
All About the Ride
The future of aluminium boating has changed forever as the Apex Hull delivers
unbelievable on water performance created by a combination of these key
factors:
-
The flare is carried further aft to maintain continual contact with the
water when on the plane creating an even, smooth ride.
-
The wider, sweeping chine design opens the front of the hull to allow the
flaring to carry further forward up the stem line, consequently improving
rough water performance. By widening the chine on the Apex Hull, Quintrex
have achieved increased stability and grip when cornering.
-
The increased surface area at the bow of the Apex Hull provides much greater
lift, ensuring a level attitude.
More Room – 20% Internal Volume Increase
-
The Apex Hull keeps giving with even more internal room, making sure it is
one of the most user-friendly hulls on the market.
-
The new RSD (Raised Side Decks) featured on selected Apex models is
fully-welded and increases the overall internal volume of the boat by 20%.
The new RSD also increases freeboard by 80mm, offering extra comfort, safety
and fishability. Furthermore, a compact side deck design maximises internal width in the Apex Hull.
-
The overall footprint of the Apex Hull has increased by 5%; the forked bow
creates room for a large bow seating area on bowrider models and a large
casting platform on open, fishing styled boats.
REDESIGNED FROM THE WATER UP
Created using advanced design software, virtual modelling and 2 new stretch
forming dies, the result is an entirely new concave flare in side sheets and
bottom sides for a smoother, drier ride and increased hull efficiency on all
models.
MORE SPEED LESS POWER
Hull efficiency has been increased by fine tuning the delicate balance between
convex and concave shapes. The result is lower planing speeds and improved
top-end speed - the Blade Hull can perform better with lower horsepower!
CONVENTIONAL JUST WON'T CUT IT
The Blade Hull cuts through chopppy water and deflects spray with ease -
thanks to our unique ability to stretch form aluminium into concave shapes.
The variable deadrise of the Blade Hull and the curved side sheets of the
Flared Bow make Quintrex boats the softest and driest riding boats on the
market.
AN EVEN DRIER RIDE
The Blade Hull performs with a near zero nose high attitude for improved
visibility at slower speeds - when getting onto, or coming off the plane.
CUTS LIKE A KNIFE
With a sharper, sleeker shape, increased deadrise and narrow 'shoulder', the
Blade Hull cuts through choppy water faster and easier, optimising efficiency and performance. Scientifically designed to cater to Australia's diverse waterways, the Blade Hull delivers a smooth and reliable ride in both inland and offshore waterways.
A BOAT WITH LESS ATTITUDE
The Blade Hull releases spray further aft, reducing the possibility of wind
buffeting it back into the boat. The side sheet flare has been expanded
further mid-ships creating a larger spray catchment area.
Quintrex boats are the result of decades of expertise and design finesse of an expert team of passionate boat builders. The result; Australia's most popular boat range.
