The President of the Management Board of Luka Koper Dragomir Matić has greeted the first arrival of Portorož and it’s captain Vitaly Ermolaev in Koper with a symbolic photo of the first ship moored in, at that time new Koper port late in the 1958. It was the ship Gorica which also belonged to Splošna plovba.
