To get a physical copy of the 2022 Qwest brochure, stop in at your local Authorized Qwest Dealer and spend some time to see the boats on display while you are there. 

We also have our current and past brochures available for you to view and download in our Resources section. 

If you would like a printed brochure then fill out our Request a Brochure Form. 

No, all Qwest pontoons are sold and delivered through our Authorized Qwest Dealer network who are set up to handle state and local sales taxes, state watercraft/title registrations, financing, rigging the boat in compliance with state and local regulations, and final delivery to the customer. Dealers also are your local resource for parts, service, and annual maintenance. All rental fleet customers should also purchase through an Authorized Qwest Dealer. 

The motor powering your new Qwest will depend on the brand(s) that your local Qwest dealer is authorized to sell and service. Most dealers offer (2) or more motor lines so you have a choice and can take advantage of seasonal warranty or discount incentives. 

Qwest supports all major motor brands including Honda, Mercury, Suzuki, Yamaha, Tohatsu, as well as electric outboards like Torqeedo Cruise and Minn Kota E-Drive. Contact your local Authorized Qwest Dealer or visit their website to see what motor lines they support.

All Qwest boat models can be equipped with an electric motor as an alternative to a gas motor. The electric motor will mount at the same position on the transom that a gas outboard would mount. Steering and throttle would still be controlled from the captain's seat/helm. Electric motors are a great option for all boats from 14' to 18' long (814, 816, 818). An electric motor will still work with boats 20' or longer at slower speeds and limited maneuverability.

The Gen II Triple Tube Package is available on all pontoons 18' or longer as long as the boat is ordered in the “LT” or “LTZ” trim levels.  The package is not available on boats with the “L” trim level.

Qwest uses SurLast® all-weather fabric for all canvas on our pontoons including bimini tops and boots, playpen covers, and individual seat covers. SurLast is designed to be easy to maintain.

For normal care and cleaning add two ounces of mild soap to one gallon of lukewarm water. Clean the fabric with a soft bristle brush. Rinse thoroughly with cold water and air dry. Applying 303 Fabric Guard after cleaning once a year will increase the water resistance and extend the life of the cover. For stubborn stains or mold add one cup of bleach to one gallon of water and follow the same cleaning instructions. Prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals can damage the fabric so rinse immediately. Cleaning with harsh chemicals such as bleach will require re-treatment with 303 Fabric Guard to restore the water repellency. 

All parts and accessories should be ordered directly from an Authorized Qwest Dealer. If the part is not in stock with the dealer, they will order the part from our factory for you. Lead times for parts orders are typically longer during the peak spring and summer seasons. Include your boat Serial Number (APX.....) when ordering parts so that we can provide or build the correct part for your boat. Visit or call an Authorized Qwest Dealer or use the Contact Form on the left to send a part/accessory request.

Service, repair, and warranty work required for your Qwest pontoon should be performed by the Authorized Qwest dealer where you purchased the boat. If you are the second or third owner of the pontoon, find a nearby Authorized Qwest Dealer in order to coordinate service.

All warranty claims must be submitted by an Authorized Qwest Dealer. Warranty work requires pre-approval from the Qwest factory. To start a warranty claim please contact the dealer from which you originally purchased the pontoon through. If you are the second or third owner of the pontoon, find a nearby Authorized Qwest Dealer to send a service/repair request. 

At the current time due to COVID health and safety regulations, the plant is closed to all visitors and we are not conducting tours. We will open back up for tours as it is safe to do so.

Please contact your nearest dealer to submit a question or comment to a representative at Qwest Pontoons or Apex Marine.

The Hull ID is located on the starboard side of the boat, towards the rear, below the rub rail on a little metal plate. Hull ID information will also be on your boats title, registration and proof of insurance. The numbers begin with the letters APX.
