ZAGREB, Aug 11 (Hina) - The winner of the 21st edition of the 22.5-kilometre-long Boat Marathon, which was held on the Neretva river on Saturday, was the 10-member team from Stablina in the environs of the town of Ploce.

The team called Argo from the town of Bjelovar was the second and the "Gusari" (Pirates) from the village of Komin won the third place in this regatta which began in Metkovic and finished in the Bay of Ploce.

This year, a total of 26 teams participated in this amateur sporting event that promotes traditional vessels from the Neretva Delta.

The winner of the race was presented with the Domagoj Shield in Ploce. The trophy is in the form of a shield used by the Duke of Domagoj who ruled Croatia from 864 until his death in 876.
