Life and career


A resident of Zadar, where he moved in 2001, Marenić was born in Mali Lošinj, Croatia, and is originally from Cres.[1][2] He started sailing in his native Cres with JK Reful in 1995, in the Optimist class. He trained in his native city, and on the day he turned 24, Marenić was awarded by the city of Cres one of its greatest recognitions, Pro Insula, for achievements and contribution of importance for the development of the City of Cres, and especially for the exceptional sports results achieved in sailing.[1] From 1998 to 2001 he was a member of the Croatian national team, and in 2000 he was fifth at the World Championships.[3][1] In 1999 he competed in the Optimist World Championships in Martinique.[4]

At the 470 World Championships in 2009 in Rungsted, Fantela and Marenić became the first Croatians to win a gold medal at the ISAF World Championships.[5] In 2011 in Helsinki, the two won gold in the 470 class at the European Championships.[6]

Marenić competed at the 2008 and 2012 Summer Olympics in the men's 470 class event, both times competing with Fantela.[2][7]
