The seafaring of Croatian people dates back to the time of Marco Polo.<\/a> Our sailors, as they say, know the sea well, and that is crucial if you want to build ships. This fascinating ship, the Golden Horizon sailboat, is the largest cross-sail ship in the world. It is 162 meters long and 18.5 meters wide. It has five masts with 36 cross sails with a total area of \u200b\u200b6,347 square meters. The most enormous mast is an impressive 63 meters high and weighs 24 tons, and the most extensive cross is 31 meters long.<\/span><\/p>\n
