A list dated 17 November 1939 was dealing with ships and floating equipment captured by the Germans in the Polish coastal area. With the German ship breaking company Gemeinschaft Bremerhaven was negotiated about scrapping the ships and equipment not wanted by the military leader of the salvage group. Captured ships not owned by the Polish government were due to the war considered as war prizes and could be used for service. Ships not used for military purposed could be returned for economic reasons to their owners. An item reported the Polish tug Mistrz of 150 hp. Salvaged in the old navy harbour at Gdynia [called Gotenhafen by Germans] and now under repair at the shipyard Danzig. Estimated service data around 28 November 1939. To be handed over to the Ausrüstungstelle Gotenhafen for her own use.
