Summary/Abstract: This paper outlines a precedent from the Croatian shipbuilding industry, i.e. the delivery and acceptance of two vessels under construction in the port of Turkmenbashi in Turkmenistan, the passage of the vessels through the Volga-Baltic Waterway, the processes of obtaining permission for the passage from the ministries of the Russian Federation, specific legal documentation issued for the vessels under construction for a one-way non-commercial voyage to the port of delivery, delivery and acceptance, and the transfer of ownership and obligations to the shipowner. The paper also considers the amendment to Article 99 of the Maritime Code as a consequence of this marine adventure.
