TRANSLATE:
Putovanje brodom lijep je a ponekad i uzbudljiv doivljaj. Pogotovo ako se radi o
krstarenju. Za vrijeme jela i putnici i posada okupe se u salon-restoranu, a tijekom
dana na palubi. Osim zapovjednika i brodskih oficira te mornara tu je jo i brodski
lijenik. Za svaki sluaj brod je opremljen i amcima za spaavanje na vesla, postoji i
brodska ambulanta ako kojem putniku zatreba kakva pomo. Na sreu, nesree, vatra
na brodu ili pak spaavanje na moru rijetko se dogaaju.
