Abstract

Central theme of this article is directed towards naval military career of Vicko Dabović from Boka, the captain of Venetian ship Vittoria II in the last years of the eighteenth century. The article is based on the previous results of historiography (general data on the Dabović family) and – to a greater extent – on the analysis of the source materials from the State Archive of Venice (archival series of the Provveditori all’Armar). In the central part of the article, the composition of the crew of Vittoria II is analysed according to the lists made from 1 September 1794 to 24 September 1795. Lists of the ship’s crew of Vittoria II are given as an appendix at the end of the article.
