Kraljevica Shipyard is a shipbuilder at Kraljevica, on the Adriatic coast of Croatia.[1] The shipyard was founded in 1729 by Charles VI, Holy Roman Emperor,[2] and is claimed to be the oldest continuously operational shipyard in the world.[3]

The shipyard has been operating under the name DALMONT d.o.o. since 1992. The government of Croatia has repeatedly attempted to privatise the shipyard, most recently in November 2010.[4][5] The company was forced into bankruptcy proceedings by the Croatian government in March 2012.[6][7]

Vessels

The shipyard has produced a variety of commercial ships, military vessels, and superyachts.[8] In 2009, Kraljevica Shipyard constructed the JoyMe, a 49.9 metre yacht.[9] In 2010, the shipyard agreed to build two large trawlers for Russian clients.[10]
