Polish ship Olza still on stocks at Gdynia captured by German forces in September 1939

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 ship Olza on stocks at the new private shipyard at Gdynia [called Gotenhafen by Germans] with as dimensions 68,22 x 10,67 x 6,55 metres and 1.088 tons gross register tonnage. Building costs for 3 weeks before she could be launched were 15.330 Reich mark. The shipyard at Danzig proposed to let her stay on stocks. The construction was 8-90% completed. The German Oberkommando der Kriegsmarine (O.K.M.) investigated if she could be completed at the Stettiner Vulkan shipyard while the navy yard at Kiel investigated if she could be used as cargo ship.
