The Shcherbakov family consisted of five people, who lived in a sixteen-meter communal flat in Opochinin's street on Vasilyevsky Island. The room window looked out onto the Gulf of Finland, to which were ships, and Boris dreamed of what it would be like to become a captain and travel.

Nevertheless, he managed to convince Massalsky to take him for his course.
