Adriatic 42 Appoints Eric Robert-Peillard as New CEO
Adriatic 42 has appointed Eric Robert-Peillard as its new Chief Executive Officer, marking a new chapter in the company’s journey to becoming a leading player in the global yachting industry.

Under his leadership, Adriatic 42 aims to elevate its superyacht services to establish the company and Porto Montenegro as the leading Mediterranean hub for superyacht owners, managers, and captains seeking exceptional service, value, and world-class facilities.
The strategic leadership change follows the recent appointment of David Margason as Chairman of Adriatic 42 earlier this summer.
David Margason, Chairman of Adriatic 42, said: "With his strategic vision and collaborative leadership style, Eric will play a crucial role in advancing our mission to establish Adriatic 42 as the premier superyacht destination in the Mediterranean.
"His appointment reflects our shared commitment with Drydocks World to enhance our service offerings and drive growth in Montenegro's yachting industry."
Captain Rado Antolovic, PhD, CEO of Drydocks World, said: "We are entering an exciting phase of growth at Adriatic 42, which will further reinforce Montenegro's status as a key global yachting hub.
"I am confident that Eric's leadership will inspire innovation and uphold our highest quality and safety standards. We anticipate great success under his and David's guidance."
Eric Robert-Peillard, the newly appointed CEO, said: "I am honoured to lead Adriatic 42 and this talented team. With our strong strategy, I am excited about future growth opportunities.
"We aim to set new industry benchmarks in superyacht care and refit services, driven by our commitment to excellence and quality. I look forward to engaging with our partners and clients at the Monaco Yacht Show as we continue to elevate our service offerings."
Adriatic 42, the newly redeveloped superyacht service, repair, and refit shipyard in Bijela, is a joint venture between PM Holdings LLC, part of the Investment Corporation of Dubai (ICD), and Drydocks World Dubai, a DP World company.
Strategically positioned in the Bay of Kotor, it is located just 3 km from Porto Montenegro’s renowned superyacht marina and waterfront community.
Under the new leadership, Adriatic’s dedicated team of 100 employees is set to expand its influence and continue delivering exceptional services with a commitment to sustainability and innovation.
