Aaah, the time of MYS or Monaco Yacht Show has come. And what a show it will be, I know …|

I recently spoke with an old fisherman from the Croatian coastal town of Rijeka. He complained how local government promised a new marina at the Delta, a run down part of this industrial town in the North of the country, set in the fabulous Kvarner bay, a number of years ago. It was supposed to attract new businesses, new investments, new mooring for his old barka, a traditional wooden boat used for fishing, so that he and others do not have to duck their heads when heading out into the kvarner and into the open sea.
