Crikvenica met "Crkveniškinja"

After only four days of construction, on Wednesday, the 28th of August in the evening at a crowded waterfront in Crikvenica Crkveniškinja was presented, a charming and original boat "batana" type with Latin sail, 2.4 meters long.
Boat were built with diligent children´s arms with the help of Davor Mihalicin in the "Little School of shipbuilding". Small creative builders Lucija Biondić, Klara Brajković, Franka Gasparović, Sonja and Iva Gazilj, Roko and Dino Katnić, Toni Pelić, Nola Posarić, Marijan Šiftar and Jure Šimić, curiously absorb the theoretical knowledge, and then rolled up their sleeves and went to work.
Visitors of the Facebook page of the Tourist Board were given 5 names (Crkveniškinja, Kirica, Sarag, Kotorka, Vavik parićana)to chose and they chose the name Crkveniškinja.
The rain that fell relentlessly throughout the morning, afternoon, however, gave away to a sun that shined with joy and welcomed the new sea queen.
Crkveniškinja was blessed by the pastor Slobodan Bunoza in company of a number of enthusiastic guests and residents of Crikvenica, and the Tourist Board Director Mariana Biondić gave a speech, while the boat was set to sea by its honorary godmother Slavica Car Friso herself being "Crkveniškinja".

This year's Fishermensweek, will keep, with memories of many fun events and delicious fish dishes,  a permanent reminder -  small wooden boat "Crkveniškinju"  boat, whome certainly await many sea adventures.
