Built as a multipurpose vessel, it was used to transport people, livestock, building materials, wood, farming tools, crops and other products between the neighboring islands, the Kornati archipelago and the mainland. Thanks to its wide and stable hull, it was able to safely transport large cargo. Today, it is recognized as one of the most valuable examples of Croatian traditional maritime heritage. Organized shipbuilding in Betina has been developing since the mid-18th century. Local shipbuilders have perfected the shape of the gajeta to suit the shallow sea, numerous coves and the needs of island life. Years of maritime tradition combined with shipbuilding knowledge had allowed for the development of a vessel that was durable, reliable and adapted to everyday work at sea.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HSE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67512596103417,"sku":null,"price":4.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0330\/5233\/files\/2026croCroatia-SpainJointIssue.jpg?v=1793127527","url":"https:\/\/www.buyhungarianstamps.com\/products\/croatia-2026-croatia-spain-joint-issue-mnh","provider":"Hungaria Stamp Exchange","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
