The Shevchenko (Шевченко), or Taras Shevchenko (Тарас Шевченко), is a location in Zaton in S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat.
Overview[]
Much like Skadovsk, the Shevchenko is the rusted wreck of an old tanker ship, and a landmark of the swampy region of Zaton. Although it's not a full-fledged stalker camp, it does provide good cover in case of an Emission for Stalkers who otherwise wouldn't make it in time to Skadovsk.
Layout[]
The ship is much smaller and less complicated if compared to its distant relative, the Skadovsk. It has no signs of any kind of work put into repurposing the ship into a domicile, possibly due to the wreck being in far worse shape than the Skadovsk – one can forget luxuries such as company of fellow stalkers or electricity.
Inhabitants[]
There are no permanent dwellers, only occasional visiting stalkers who, in most cases, only take refuge and cover from an Emission before moving on. At the start of the game, Spartacus and his team reside here.
Appearances[]
Call of Pripyat[]
The Shevchenko is the target of the mission The Hit given by Sultan, which requires the player to assist Knuckles' team into eliminating Spartacus' stalkers at night, though the player may side with the Loners and take down Knuckles' group instead.
Stashes[]
- Stash containing three Cossacks vodka bottles; in the southeastern part of the ship, ground level, behind a metal beam and equipment.

Trivia[]
- The ship is named after a 19th century Ukrainian poet, Taras Shevchenko (Тарас Григорович Шевченко).
- The ship also coincidentally shares its name with Vladimir Shevchenko, a Ukranian film-maker who was permitted into the area around the Chernobyl disaster.
