History
MS Lastivka was built in 1975 at Moscow Shipyard, USSR. Former name of the ship — Pavlik Morozov (homeport Dnipropetrovsk). Until its move to Kharkiv the ship ploughed waters of the Dnieper.
In 1995 by efforts of O. Sazonov MS Pavlik Morozov that had been in a sad state was moved from Dnipropetrovsk to Kharkiv using special 30-meters carriage. Restoration and reconstruction works were conducted on the river of Kharkiv in the other side of Chyhyryn bridge.
