So far, Galeb has sucked up over 15 million euros, and he needs hundreds of thousands more, paid for by the taxpayers.

The article discusses the ongoing costs associated with repairing and preparing the ship 'Galeb' for display as a museum in Rijeka. Initially estimated at 165,000 euros, the repair cost was significantly exceeded by the winning bid of 294,475 euros, leading to the cancellation of the first tender. A new tender was later issued with additional requirements, increasing the total cost beyond 15 million euros. The city has secured additional funds through insurance from the Turkish vessel 'Deniz Akay', which caused damage during maneuvering. Despite these efforts, the restoration is not yet complete, and further expenses of hundreds of thousands of euros are expected before the ship can receive necessary certifications from the Croatian Register of Ships (HRB).
