WHY QWEST?
EXCEPTIONAL QUALITY
INDUSTRY’S FINEST UPHOLSTERY
Unrivaled quality is the hallmark of every Qwest Pontoon Boat. We’re meticulous about every
detail and strive for excellence in our production process. We invite you to take a closer,
noticing the detailed fit and finish. It is our utmost endeavor to provide you with a pontoon
boat that is designed and built to last for generations to enjoy.
We manufacture our own line of premium quality upholstery, carefully crafted to
the highest standards, in order to provide the ultimate in comfort and durability.
Our proprietary “Ultra-Flow” plastic seat bases are designed to give optimum
ventilation and maximum storage in a lighter-weight package.
WE ARE THE MANUFACTURER
MAKE IT YOUR WAY
Using precise manufacturing equipment, methods and software, we design and build
components in-house. This allows us to be proactive and flexible on design without losing
distinct quality. Streamlining production on site allows us to make a better boat without
accumulating costs associated with purchasing pre-manufactured components.
Qwest offers more models and options in smaller pontoons boats than anyone
in the marketplace, giving you endless design and feature choices for cruising,
fishing, bar boats, or water sports. Whatever you enjoy on the water, we can
help make it your way.
LIGHTWEIGHT DESIGN
PROGRESSIVE IDEAS
Qwest Pontoon Boats feature a unique, lightweight design that allows our compact pontoons
to compete with larger pontoons on the market. They offer better flotation and capacities
with smaller diameter pontoons for the maximum boating experience and performance,
without sacrificing safety and stability in the water.
We are innovators leading the way with new ground breaking models and
features unlike anything else. We believe that vision combined with innovative
technology drives continuous improvement and development of unique products,
and our growth demonstrates that we’re committed to understanding what our
customers expect. We know we have the boat you’re looking for and invite you to
THE RIGHT SIZE
Because our boats are sleek in design they are easy to maneuver, both on and off the
water. Qwest Pontoon Boats have lower operating costs, use less fuel and travel well.
When the day is done they can easily be loaded on a trailer and towed effortlessly,
ready for the next expedition.
