MF Vladimir Nazor is a ferry (named after Croatian poet and politician Vladimir Nazor) owned by Croatian shipping company Jadrolinija. It operates on local routes.[1] It was built in Kraljevica Shipyard in 1986, for DINA Petrokemija Company to transport railway boxcars. After the project's collapse it was sold to Jadrolinija and refitted for passenger transport.
