Description:

Among the few ship scrapping yards in Croatia, some keep the "souvenirs" from their past customers. So, this is a part of the subject ship (not the Japanese built tanker like I thought before), stored for whatever future purpose, supported by another piece of history, a steel cupola ("cloche") taken from a military fortification built by the Italians before the WW2, when Zadar belonged to Italy.

Thanks Vlad.

Pieter, a name plate would be perfectly fine to represent a ship with the attached IMO number - and "Scrapyard ships" would be the best category to post it in, as there are many, well, scraps there...
But it would be true in case the name did indeed belong to a specific IMO number.
And it's quite possibly not the case here.
I asked back in 2009 about the this part, and got an answer that there were three ships by the name "Ošljak", and that the part did not belong neither to the oldest, nor to the youngest one. The youngest one being the ship with the above IMO number.
I never had a full clarification, and I obviously forgot about the info from 2009.
And the part of the structure does look older than 1981.
I don't have a photo of the "Ošljak" with this IMO number, but I will edit the info and remove the IMO number.

Cheers

Vlad

Vlad, a name plate will not have an IMO number even if the name has also been used on a ship, especially when the plate is much older than the ship.
I was actually looking for pictures of the ship with that name and I was slightly disappointed. You can make it up by posting the real OSLJAK for.

OŠLJAK In past decades only one vessel of this name had been registered in Zadar: small tanker built in 1981 as YUKIKAZE by Hakata Zosen #251. IMO 8020733. She was purchased by Tankerska Plovidba in 1989 and broken up in 2003. Rgds

It does show her name, does it not?

This picture does not show anything that would earn her the IMO number that has been attributed...
