Description
This vessel was built at Beliard-Crighton & Co. (yard no. 88) in Ostende as one in a series of steam trawlers, still building when Belgium was occupied by Germany in 1940. Upon her eventual completion she was taken over by the German Navy in May 1944 as the "tonnenleger" (bouy-layer) Minsen. In 1945 she was taken over by the Danish State as the Zeus, intended for similar service in Danish waters. In November 1949 she was sold to the shipping company Cereso of Marstal and became the Bredholm. The steam engine was replaced by a diesel, ready in March 1950. In May 1951 she became the Leo. In July 1959 sold to Robert Stærke Kristensen and became the Leif Stærke of Ommel. In December 1976 sold to Coquette Shipping Co. Ltd., Limassol, Cyprus and became the Helena. In 1981 became the Transmar of Panama, owned by Coquette Shipping Co. Ltd., Panama. In December 1997 stricken from Lloyds list. IMO 5205605.

(Reusing this file)
This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1953, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


You must also include a United States public domain tag to indicate why this work is in the public domain in the United States. Note that a few countries have copyright terms longer than 70 years: Mexico has 100 years, Jamaica has 95 years, Colombia has 80 years, and Guatemala and Samoa have 75 years. This image may not be in the public domain in these countries, which moreover do not implement the rule of the shorter term. Honduras has a general copyright term of 75 years, but it does implement the rule of the shorter term. Copyright may extend on works created by French who died for France in World War II (more information), Russians who served in the Eastern Front of World War II (known as the Great Patriotic War in Russia) and posthumously rehabilitated victims of Soviet repressions (more information).
The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
