Quintrex Plate Boat Construction - 7600HT Yellowfin

[@TB-sv3nw]

That is the best production method, moving the piece being welded and keeping the welder stationary and comfortable. Gives me ideas !

Not saying the guy is bad, but once set up pulse migging is pretty easy, so long as he doesn't try to do anything stupid.

[@wombatillo]

Damn that's nice welding compared to many small workshops. Especially getting the boat to slide back and forth on rollers and rails for the long welds on the bottom is amazing. A very clean look.

[@drumminsonlive9199]

I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that man has welded a boat or two before... Awesome!

[@felixcat9318]

Outstanding craftsmanship! Its a joy to see Professionals at their craft like this, I would be proud to own a boat so well built.

[@Aussie21717]

Wow you can tell they've built a boat or two and got their sh.t sorted. Well done.

this guy doesn't deserve a wage ,,,, he deserves a medal . hes built this boat on his own ,, love the step ladder , move the boat feed method too.

[@mikehatcher5855]

Wish I pursued alloy boat building instead of boiler making. Bet my hands would still work good. Your guys do good work and your shop looks super clean and efficient. Thanks for the full step by step. These boats in Canada are costing 150-220k now for basic builds. If you want a fully loaded 30 foot king fisher you can expect to see a 600k price tag….😮

[@jamescampbell9992]

Wow, i want to know how they combat distortion especially with such long welds

[@jordanhikairo-ngaputa8850]

You can see that he is back stepping his welds Wich gives less chance of distortion compared to just doing straight line welds

[@theboat-7.5airriderbuild88]

It’s Quintrex, they don’t really bother

[@donpaterson2397]

@@theboat-7.5airriderbuild88 watching an airrider hull getting built at the moment. And it's night and day how superior the airrider is over the quintrex. With its full interlocking stringers and ribs. On the quintrex I can't believe they weld the bottom sheets first, flip it then weld like individual piece stringers by hand placement between the ribs. Absolutely shit.

[@johnnyz2378]

black zebra bullshit, he does. Even if he’s on “minimum wage”, that’s around $20 an hour here in Australia. A bloke with his skills and experience would be pulling down a minimum of $45-50 an hour, if not more. $10 an hour, my arse - 15 year olds at McDonalds earn more than that!!

[@joemills3018]

Unless he works in the mines.

[@atthebrink74]

You Aussies know how to make a tin boat! Nice! I would like to know how many linear feet of weld goes into one of these hulls.

[@Handleyman]

mike underbrink A shit load...technically speaking! 😉

[@ianmoone2359]

Probably about 3 or 4 90 pound bottles of Argon shielding gas, probably 4 or 5 kms of alloy welding wire, so 2 miles of wire? That’s based on welding up a 16ft v nosed punt once about 15-20 years ago.

[@clintpuddister7257]

A quarter mile or more maybe

[@m.thansen5738]

3 to 4 4.5 kg rolls of 1.2 wire and about 2 1/2 big bottles argon at 20 lpm thats for a 24 ft 5mm bottom 4mm sides 3mm cabin boat

The lack of frame depth and intermittent (non-continuous) stringers......a big no if you want a boat that will last, I would barely class this a 'plate' boat, great welding video though.

[@vagusnerve8797]

Hellow bro. I wanna make my own aluminium boat. What aluminium sheet thickness and alloy is better for making hull?

[@robertlackey7212]

5086 , in boat building scantlings are used , which basically means you go and look at as many boats as you can , and make a educated guess , bigger boats tend to use thicker material , boats that see rougher service tend to use thicker material , you need to be careful about not making abrupt transitions from something very stiff to something more flexible imagine that you were a giant and you grabbed the boat and started twisting and bending it , now imagine where it would crack , those are the places you need to pay a lot of attention to .

[@andrewiannello6548]

Where's the floatation? Relying on air lock once the floors down. What if you get a hole, she sinks?

[@clintpuddister7257]

All boat sink if they get a hole . the way boats work is by displacing more water than the weight of the boat . this boat may weigh 2 ton but displace 4 to 5 ton of water weight .

[@andrewiannello6548]

@@clintpuddister7257 incorrect, level floatation if done right allows you to bail out and get going again. PU closed cell foam filled cavities do not allow water to enter the hull even with a hole.

[@sakkiejack]

What welder are they using? Mig? Tig?

[@dobbytheplug8089]

Jack Jordaan Mig

[@dobbytheplug8089]

using argon shielding gas... a mixture of helium and argon will produce a better quality weld

No respirators, turn a solid into a gas then inhale it cool and turns back into a solid. Boycott that boat builder until they start treating there staff properly

Quintrex = Crack'N'flex

[@andrewiannello6548]

Still no foam. What a joke. Only meets Inland rivers. Wonder what BS weight you'll stamp on it. Only recently i borrowed a hornet trophy 435, i had some concerns and ended up weighing it at 514kg with no fuel. Supposedly you can put 4 people /400kg in it! By my calculations you would be lucky to have one person with gear or two people without even a fishing rod. So if i took the manufacturer weight and tried to tow this with a Hyundai, cause supposedly your within limits, then have an accident and have everything weighed to find out your over weight! The early hornet I tested wouldn't even meet basic floatation and would sink. I don't actually think Quintrex knows how to perform displacement calculations. When the boats are unbalanced then your centre of bouancy shifts, you guys don't design this in. You only need year 11 physics to work it out. I worked this out after putting my family in this boat with gear at 270kg. We had water lapping in at the top sump plug. We shifted weight forward and slightly improved but not enough for me to launch off the Jetty. I took my family out of the boat and put it back on the trailer. And went and performed my own calculations as described above. These things are a death trap, especially in tropical waters with crocs and large tidal systems up north. I wouldn't by an aluminium boat with a short shaft, the displacement can never meet the design loads with any safety factor greater than 2. Basic floatation safety factor is 5. I'm extremely disappointed that my life and that of my families was compromised because I trusted the build plate. Please anyone reading, make your kids finish year 12, maths & physics is important.
