Abstract
Lacking special maritime law regulations, the [Croatian] Law of Obligations is to be applied for determining the scope of amends to be paid for damage caused by the repair of a ship.
According to the aforesaid law, the contractor - if deception and deliberate failure to carry out the work due to utter negligence can be excluded - is responsible to the creditor, in this case the orderer, only for the damage he should have predicted in regards to the facts that he was or should have been aware of at the time of signing the contract.
Out of the season of sport navigation the contractor did not have to be aware - if not particularly warned - that the orderer is not responsible for the hotel expenses that arose during the time of the improper realization of the contract.
