Prince Aviation proudly sponsored this year’s “Ocean Race 2025” event, with company co-owners Veselin Jevrosimović and Slobodan Stričević and directors Srđan Kragojević and Đorđe Petrović participating at the grand finale held in Boka Bay, Montenegro.

The 2025 edition marked a significant milestone as crews competed on the Adriatic Sea for the first time in the race’s over 50-year history. Seven professional teams representing six nations competed in the IMOCA class yachts throughout the multi-stage offshore sailing race.

The 4,500-nautical mile race course, held under the banner “Connecting Europe,” stretched from Kiel, Germany through the North Sea, English Channel, Atlantic Ocean, Mediterranean, and Baltic Sea before concluding in Montenegro’s stunning Boka Bay.

Prince Aviation’s leadership team experienced the competition firsthand, joining the crew aboard Team Allagrande Mapei Racing’s yacht during the racing action.

We were hosted by Milivoj Dukic, Montenegro’s four-time Olympic sailing champion who served as official ambassador for The Ocean Race Europe 2025 finale.

“This was an extraordinary experience that perfectly aligns with our company’s values of team work, endurance, commitment and reliability under all elements” said Prince Aviation CEO Srđan Kragojević “Supporting a world-class sailing competition also draws on our long lasting love for nautical sports”.

Prince Aviation CEO participated in the “Making Waves – the Boka Bay Edition” roundtable on ocean sustainability challenges and solutions.

During the finale celebrations, Prince Aviation representatives networked with The Ocean Race co-owners Richard Brisius and Johan Salén, Filip Radulović, Minister of Transportation and Maritime Affairs of Montenegro, Porto Montenegro’s Desko Portić, and IMOCA 60 class captain Rosalin Kuiper, among other distinguished guests at the awards gala ceremony.

The Ocean Race Europe 2025’s historic conclusion in Montenegro’s Boka Bay represents a new chapter for the prestigious competition, with Prince Aviation proud to support this landmark event in international sailing.
