Biography
Rzeszowiak is the property of the Rzeszow Regional Union of Sailors.
Rzeszow is a beautiful city in the South of Poland near the Bieszczady Mountains and the name Rzeszowiak (which means a person from Rzeszow) was given to the vessel because of the realisation of the dream for those who live far from the sea, but want to sail.
Rzeszowiak was launched in 2000, but the history of the build started in 1988. The hull was built near Rzeszow in Lezajsk over 700km from the sea. The finished hull, with masts, was transported by truck to Gdansk where the vessel was finished and put into the water.
