Sažetak
The number of yachts and recreational boats in the Croatian part of the Adriatic Sea has been increasing considerably. Even though the legislative provides legal actions in compliance with conventions and regulations related to marine preservation and prevention of pollution, it is presumed that the measures governing the protection of marine environment from the sewage waters are insufficient. The design of faecal systems in yachts and recreational boats depends on when a vessel was built. Due to their price, older boats, not fitted with sewage holding tanks, are the ones that are most frequently imported. The number of such vessels is increased in summer months, when older foreign vessels enter Croatian waters making them additionally polluted. The authors of this paper suggest amendments to the existing regulations and that new compulsory equipment be defined.
