Many charter boats take a shortcut through the Ždrelac Bridge. Sounds smart… until it’s not. Every season, boats with masts that are too high get stuck under the bridge - blocking traffic, damaging equipment, and needing to be pulled out.

A few minutes of planning can save hours of trouble - and a very expensive mistake. ⚠️ Always check bridge clearance before you pass. 00:01 - Introduction 00:23 - Shortcut for boats 00:33 - Advertisement - TIMEZERO 00:43 - Passing under the bridge 01:31 - Conclusion No matter if you are planning a family holiday or a more challenging voyage, having the situation under control is key to success.
