Quintrex Makes Waves in the Marine Industry
Quintrex
is set to hit the water with a reinvigorated lineup this month as they relaunch
five of their most popular models to the public; namely, the Fishabout, Top
Ender, Cruiseabout, Ocean Spirit and Hornet. From
avid fishos with the Top Ender and Hornet, to families with the Cruiseabout and
Fishabout and offshore adventurers with the Ocean Spirit, the 2021 lineup aims
towards delivering a newly refreshed model for every boatie.
“Thanks
to an ongoing investment towards delivering innovation and cutting-edge
products, Quintrex has affirmed itself as the long-standing market leader in
aluminium boating,” Sam Heyes, General Manager Telwater BRP said. “At
our core is a strong team of the industry’s best boat builders and designers,
who have invested their hard work and efforts towards enhancing our lineup and
delivering increased functionality for consumers, an easy buying process and a
product that looks, feels and performs like no other.”
On
Tuesday 18 May, 2021, Quintrex dropped the curtain on its first ever Boat
Bundle strategy, designed to simplify product optimisation by delivering a
clean-cut way to option up a boat with a package of specially selected features
to suit key lifestyle demands.
Boasting affordability
and simplicity, customers can opt for an entry level boat that only features
the bare essentials – now known as the Fishabout, Cruiseabout, Top Ender, Ocean
Spirit and Hornet.
Alternatively, to
enhance the overall on-water experience, consumers can upgrade with up to three
boat bundle options aptly named the Comfort Bundle, Fishing Bundle and Captain’s Bundle.
Or boaties can dive in with all the bells and whistles thanks to the Pro model
– Fishabout Pro,
Cruiseabout Pro, Top Ender Pro, Ocean Spirit Pro and Hornet Pro, which feature
all the premium extras.
Driven
by the businesses promise of boating made easy, together with insight from the
global marine market, the new lineup is said to pave the way towards further
nurturing new boaties into the industry whilst continuing to deliver an
unparalleled aluminium boating experience.
“Boating is booming
now more than ever which lends itself to a heightened number of new entrants
stepping into the industry however, we find that industry wide the buying
process can sometimes be overwhelming when knowing how to build the perfect
boat for your lifestyle, especially for those who are shopping online,” Sam
said. “Therefore, we hope
that through this approach, shopping online will be less intimidating by
selecting a Bundle that meets our consumers particular wants and needs –
whether that’s a boat built for fishing, family comfort or the captain’s
driving experience.”
With customers still
able to option up with individual items, Quintrex will continue to deliver the same
high level of customisation that the brand is renowned for.
Featuring all new changes set to take the market by storm,
Quintrex will also launch an all-new stripe design. Aimed towards streamlining brand image and representing a consistent look across its
boats, the number of stripe designs will reduce from the five current patterns
to one stripe.
With the entire
range set to don the fresh attire, the Quintrex brand will be easily recognised
from near and far.

the Fishabout and Cruiseabout ranges to achieve the housing of larger
