ŠTILAC
Štilac is an original Croatian sailboat of more recent times, mentioned for the first time only at the beginning of the 19th century. On the seaside, it is considered a “well-constructed” boat. The hull of such boats usually ranged from 15 to 17 metres. This type of sailboat mostly served for the transport of cargo, as a “salbunjer” boat (for the extraction and transport of sea sand) and the transport of passengers. It has one mast, to which the lugsail was fastened, and later the trysail. Attached to the short sprit were one to two jibs. Today, there are quite a few of these boats on the Adriatic, however, nowadays they are motorised (Wikipedia).
