Tow‑and‑Go Quintrex: Extended Hire from Clontarf into Moreton Bay and Noosa River.
From Clontarf you can tow a fully equipped 4.2m Quintrex to a chain of coastal waterways — Moreton Bay, the Noosa River and nearby passages — for multi‑day, self‑guided exploration and fishing. Coastal Boat Hire outfits the boats with lifejackets, an electric trolling motor and sounder/GPS, and provides an induction and safety briefing before you cast off.

Outing Highlights
A compact, ready‑to‑tow fishing rig
The hire package is a 4.2m Quintrex aluminium open boat with a 50hp four‑stroke Yamaha outboard, Minn Kota 55lb front‑mount electric motor and Hummingbird HELIX 9 sounder/GPS — set up for fishing and shallow coastal work.
Access to Moreton Bay and regional rivers
Tow the boat to nearby waterways — including Redcliffe, Moreton Bay and river systems along the Sunshine Coast — and launch for days of coastal cruising and fishing.
Self‑guided, multi‑day exploration
Extended Hire is a tow‑and‑go arrangement for 3–7 days that lets small crews plan their own routes, anchoring in passages and rivers while relying on the provided safety briefing and onboard inclusions.
What the day feels like
What the Extended Hire Feels Like
You collect the boat early in the morning after an induction, hitch it to your tow vehicle and drive to your chosen launch — then spend days navigating sheltered bays, passages and river mouths with a compact, fully supplied fishing boat. The arrangement is deliberately self‑directed: Coastal Boat Hire gives the briefing and the gear, and you manage the route, fuel and days afloat within the 3–7 day hire window.
