We are proud to announce the arrival of the Boston Whaler new model 345 Conquest. Along with the unsinkable safety that only Whaler can assure, this luxurious and comfortable new model includes innovative features that set it apart from others, such as an integrated windshield and hardtop, a centerline helm and a beautifully appointed cabin.

The 345 Conquest is Whaler’s big cabin boat designed for the maximum enjoyment of deepwater fish fighting, cruising or dockside socializing. It provides a smooth, dry ride and exceptional performance. And – like all Boston Whalers – it’s built to last, and is backed by the protection of a limited ten-year transferable hull warranty and our new three-year component warranty.

Several of the world’s leading boating magazines such as Sportfishing Magazine, Boating Magazine and Boatinglife have given the new model rave reports. You may read them on the links provided.

Who should buy it? When “How strong?” is a more important question than “How much?” you are a Whaler customer. This new model is ideal as a vacation home in your favorite marina or as a weekend cruiser to offshore destinations.

Our boat is available for inspection on QMC’s Display Arm at Gold Coat City Marina, just call us for an appointment.

After a very busy and successful Brisbane Boat Show we welcome all the new families into the Sea Ray Owners Club . Over the five days enthusiastic would-be boat owners swarmed over the spectacular Queensland Marine Centre display. The impressive new model Boston

Whaler 345 Conquest attracted a lot of attention as did the new model Sea Rays, but the new Sea Ray 355 Sundancer was definitely the hit of the Show.

Eat your heart out Southerners. Sea Ray Owners Club friends enjoyed the last weekend of August at another favourite anchorage, the Basin at the Spit, Southport. Sheltered, quiet and with easy access to car parking on shore this is an idea gathering place for boaties.

All year round boating doesn’t get much better.

Over the first weekend in August Sea Ray owners rafted together at one of their favourite get-aways, McLarens Landing. Last minute organising to take advantage of the promised weather had ten families turn up to enjoy each others company for a couple of perfect days.
A lazy Saturday was spent with the kids playing on the beach or tubing while some adults played with jet skis. An equally lay-back evening was spent enjoying time on each others boats. Later that evening, through their newly installed Bose sound system, Darren and Karren hosted The Sound of Abba aboard their beautiful Sea Ray 455 Sundancer.
It was the maiden voyage for Steve and Anne’s new Sea Ray 525 Sedan Bridge and its amply large cockpit provided a popular venue for card games on Sunday. Meanwhile, the children enjoyed being towed about in their tubes behind Steve’s new Amanzi inflatable. Other children preferred the fishing, some even caught a fish.
The weekend ended with a comfortable trip home for everyone in perfect weather, and with everyone looking forward to the next Rendezvous.
