%X Sa£¿etak From the discovery and investigation in 2013, up to finalization of the conservation process in the spring of 2017, the Pula 2 boat underwent various phases of the conservation process. Although a lot of work and financial resources have already been invested into the protection of the boat, among the finishing steps there is still one, perhaps the most demanding, to be fulfilled - presentation of the boat to the public. The purpose of the paper is to present all the activities undertaken so far within the ongoing project of the conservation of the Roman sewn ships from Pula, while an upcoming presentation of the boat for the public is under preparation. The works carried out over the past four years included archaeological investigation of the remains of the boat Pula 2, the desalination process, i.e., removal of soluble salts, construction of the appropriate transport packaging, packing and transportation of the remains to the laboratory at ARC-Nucl¨¦art in Grenoble, and finally the conservation process
