The ‘Golden Fleet’ makes Porto Montenegro its Homeport

Porto Montenegro announced that it had signed a 30 year lease with the “Golden Fleet” to make Porto Montenegro its homeport. The Golden Fleet comprises the Golden Odyssey, Golden Shadow and Golden Osprey and will move from their current homeport of Nice to Porto Montenegro, continuing a landmark year for Porto Montenegro as key development and expansion projects get underway that firmly establish its position as the luxury homeport for superyachts.

“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.
