In a newly announced collaboration, which is said to be unprecedented in the marine industry, Porto Montenegro and Gulf Craft have joined forces to offer complimentary home port berthing for owners choosing to base their yachts in Porto Montenegro. Buyers of new Gulf Craft purchased in 2022/2023 are offered annual or seasonal berthing free of charge and owners who purchased a Gulf Craft in 2021 will be given a 40% discount. For Gulf Craft owners taking advantage of this exceptional berthing offer, Porto Montenegro provides an array of additional, highly attractive lifestyle benefits, including complimentary Silver Membership of Porto Montenegro Yacht Club for two people. Members have access to the spectacular Yacht Club Pool, the Sailing Squadron and the Sports Club, with their excellent services and amenities, as well as reciprocal membership privileges in more than 15 yacht clubs around the world.
