Summary/Abstract: A contract concerning overhaul of a ship constitutes a contract of reconstruction or repair of a ship as defined by Article 448, paragraph 2 (of the Croatian Maritime Code) and not a shipbuilding contract as defined by the provision of paragraph 1 of that Article. A contract concerning a reconstruction or repair of a ship constitute a special type of a temporary service contract, therefore the issues regarding such type of contract that are not regulated by the Croatian Maritime Code, as lex specialis, are subject to relevant provisions of the Civil Obligations Act.
