Santa is set to hit record timing with the Christmas run this year thanks to his new rig - the Quintrex 430 Fishabout.

Whilst the sleigh is down for repairs the Quintrex team has stepped in to help the jolly man out, partnering with St Nick to help deliver Christmas joy to Aussie's across the country in true down-under fashion - on a boat with the wind lapping through his beard.

With over 75-years under its belt and having finetuned the art of quality aluminium boat building, there's no better vessel to take the reins and do the job.

Santa has shared the Christmas spirit early with dozens of local kids as he took to the water towards Paradise Point on the Gold Coast in his mighty Fishabout.

The magic of Christmas was felt by all with gleeful squeals resounding across the beach, smiles stretching from ear to ear left and a sugar hit thanks to Santa sharing a festive sweet.

Thanks to the Fishabout's ripper layout, with oodles of storage and a wide spacious deck area, every single pressie (plus more) squeezed into the vessel with ease.

The sturdy build structured around 3mm bottom sheets plus the famed soft ride of the Blade Hull means a smooth and safe ride for Santa and his gifts, nestled under the comfortable rear lounge and within the dash storage areas.

Plus, with ample rod holders as standard and a large dash offering all the technological real estate needed to get to where the fish are biting, you may have caught him casting a line or two.

Quintrex has delivered the magic of gift-giving for decades with the Quinnie community spanning across thousands of lucky owners, thanks to its long history in being founded in 1945 and quickly becoming one of the most sought-after boats in the country.

Renowned for its impeccable ride performance, quality, and versatility part in parcel with its dedication to making boating easy for all boat buyers, the Quinnie is at the top of the wishlist for many.

Together with its commitment to "Boating Made Easy", the brand has recently dropped the curtain on its all-new Boat Bundle initiative. The carefully structured option packs make boat buying easier than ever by simply allowing customers to add a bundle to their boat, that reflects their lifestyle - whether looking for a fishing, comfort, or captain-centric vessel.

With boating booming, the boat bundles are targeted towards nurturing the fruition of new boat buyers into the market.

Boating delivers more than a lifetime of memories, providing unlimited opportunities to explore your backyard and spend quality time with family and friends outdoors - perfect for the festive season.
