The 560 Freedom Cruiser prize package, courtesy of JV Marine World, is valued at $41,400 and is part of the world-leading Quintrex sterndrive range.
It is one of Quintrex's most popular bowrider models, taking medium sized aluminum boats to a new and innovative level.
With an overall length of 6.44 metres and seating for up to seven passengers, it is ideal for water sports, cruising and fishing.
The prize boat package includes a two-tone paint upgrade, Quintrex Alloy Trailer, spare wheel and mounting bracket, 3.0 Litre Mercruiser sterndrive, bimini, 12 months' registration and insurance, safety gear for six people and a five-year JV Marine World warranty. 
Show patrons can also win one of two Hobie kayaks or one of two Darwin fishing weekends.
The Hobie Lanai is lightweight, extremely stable and easy to handle, and is valued at $1000, complete with moulded-in paddle storage, water bottle holder and easy-carry moulded hand grip.
The four-day Darwin Weekend, courtesy of Corporate Fishing Charters, is valued at $1350 per person and includes return airfares from Melbourne, local transfers, Shimano fishing tackle, all meals, two nights on board a 46-foot offshore fishing boat and one night in Darwin.
It even includes an airline approved fish box so the lucky winners can bring back their catch for family and friends at home.
One prize will be drawn daily at 6.30pm - the Hobie kayaks on Thursday and Saturday, the Corporate Fishing Charters prizes on Friday and Sunday, and the major Quintrex boat package at 7pm on the final Monday.
More than 600 boats will be on display at this year's Show, plus a host of high-tech boating and fishing equipment and a wealth of family-friendly entertainment for mums, dads and kids alike.
The BIA Melbourne Boat Show runs from Thursday 3 July to Monday 7 July at the Melbourne Exhibition Centre. Opening hours are 10am to 9pm daily except Sunday, when the show closes at 7pm, and Monday when it closes at 8pm.
