Gruž near Dubrovnik implies Gruž is not in Dubrovnik while it is a part of the city containing its modern-day port (and was within the then tram network). It is about 2km outside the walled city - could this be the source of the "near Dubrovnik"?
According to this
[1] Đivo Bašić article, Jadran was towed from Venice to Šibenik in December 1946 before it was towed to Tivat. Šibenik had a repair shipyard at the time, so this makes sense if urgent repairs were thought to be needed. Unfortunately the article does not say how long Jadran stayed there.
Added source and info (nice find BTW, I always struggle with Google search in Serbo-Croatian). Will add more from that article before Milhist ACR.

After reading the article, I could not think of an unanswered question except one: Readers might be interested to know on what grounds is Croatia demanding the ship. According to this
[2] the Croatian claim is based on the fact that the ship was based in Split.
