    Built of steel by the Gdansk Shipyard, Poland, to replace the Dar Pomorza as a schoolship for the Gdynia Maritime Academy in Poland. She was rigged as a three-masted full-rigged ship and was equipped with an auxiliary engine. She carries royals over single topgallant sails and double topsails.

    She represents a modern design, and differs in many ways from traditional square riggers. Most notably, all her yards are fixed. This disturbs many purists, but the design was however so successful that five almost identical ships were later built: Druzhba, Mir, Khersones, Pallada and Nadezhda.
