“As captain of the Golden Fleet, I am delighted to be able to call Porto Montenegro our new ‘home’. Not only is it an extremely impressive full service superyacht facility that is continually growing, it is also located in the Bay of Kotor, one of the most protected and beautiful areas in the Mediterranean. I am confident that Porto Montenegro will continue to become one of the major superyacht hubs over the next few years and this is why we have chosen to make the move,” states Captain of the Golden Fleet, Mike Hitch.

The three yachts in the Golden Fleet consist of:

Golden Odyssey, 80 metres
Golden Shadow, 67 metres and its Sea plane, Golden Eye
Golden Osprey, 30 metres

“With the illustrious Golden Fleet now based at Porto Montenegro, we are firmly positioned as one of the Mediterranean’s leading luxury yacht homeports. Along with the doubling of our marina capacity, our 5-star Regent hotel, and our new refit facility 2012 is on course to be our best year ever” says Oliver Corlette, Managing Director of Porto Montenegro.

On the day of the event, all female ticket holders had opportunity to receive a free haircut and styling from the Vlado Hair Design team, adding an extra dose of glamour to proceedings.

During the evening, staff from One restaurant served a variety of canapés as well as bu Mesopromet, Perth and Monte Bianco wines. Delicious desserts arrived from Biškotin bakery, while exotic cocktails were provided by Helada Mon, Trebjesa and Pernod Ricard. Guests enjoyed music, a warm atmosphere and entertainment while bidding at the auction, which was brilliantly hosted by Porto Montenegro’s Beckett Tucker.

The money raised from ticket sales and auctions was allocated for the purchase of defibrillators, EKG machines, patient’s carrying boards, bags for emergency visits, inhalers and special equipment to help patients maintain normal body temperature.

Sponsors making a significant contribution towards the new Tivat emergency services equipment included Simes Engineering, Pipe Commerce and Savic & Invest. Mr. and Mrs. Peter Munk donated the missing € 1.550, in order to collect € 8.626.

A huge thank you to all those who participated in making this event such an overwhelming success.

A nautical playground adjacent to the Tivat town entrance to Porto Montenegro opened to the public this past weekend attracting a 100-strong crowd of all ages. Younger guests were able to explore the many passages, ladders and slides of this fine pirate ship while parents watched nearby on the padded rubber flooring that now covers the entire playground area.

Nine year old local Tara Petrovic was chosen to cut the ribbon with Oliver Corlette, Managing Director of Porto Montenegro and Mr Miodrag Kankaras, the Mayor of Tivat. Following the ribbon cutting ceremony, the local dance troupe named Bellisima, along with colourful clowns, then entertained the crowd with dancing, balloons, popcorn, cotton candy and refreshments.

A local photographer captured the kids playing “sailors-and-captains" – an impromptu game inspired by the new playground. Another group of children participated in acompetition of fishing for treats out of a fabricated “pond".

The ship is topped by a Porto Montenegro flag and sits between the marina and the town centre, next to the Teuta residential building, making it easily accessible to the children of Tivat town and families visiting the area.

So come along and see for yourself, there's nothing wrong with a brief return to childhood!

On the 17^th of April a quiz day will commerce, when high school students from the local community will gather in the museum to test their knowledge on two of the region's navy heroes, Milan Spasić & Sergej Mašera. From May 1st, a special exhibition will include historic yachts, sailboats, motor boats and other vessels which play an important role in the eastern Adriatic's yachting story, with accompanying artifacts such as original construction drawings, photos, dishes and ship logs. Of particular interest will be items related to one of the most storied vessels in the region. Named Ossero, Dalmat, Vila or Istranka (depending on the owner at the time), the yacht was owned by some of the most prominent names, including Archduke Franz Ferdinand, King Alexander of Yugoslavia and president Tito. Franz Ferdinand used this yacht on his trip to Sarajevo, where he was assassinated. His remains were later transported by the same boat. 

Queen Maria’s yacht “Danica”, the King’s yacht “Beli Orao”, and the sailboat ”Crnogorka” (winner of many Adriatic regattas), will also be a part of this exhibition – surely a must see this coming May.
