MARITIME HERITAGE: Veli Jože, the Floating Crane that Assured Her Place in the History: The Gentle Giant of the Adriatic
Marijan Žuvić
Abstract
The fact that the best known vessel in the recent history
of navigation on the eastern coast of the Adriatic is a humble
floating crane must be a surprise in today’s world of incredibly
big container ships, towering floating hotels and all kinds of
futuristic shaped vessels. But the glory of Veli Jože is immortal,
kept in stories and memories by generations of the Adriatic
islanders and seafarers. Certainly, it is worth sharing with the
readership of ToMS.
