Licensing

This is a copyrighted and/or unlicensed photograph depicting a watercraft. It does not fall into one of the blanket fair use categories listed at Wikipedia:Fair use#Images, and it is not covered by a more specific non-free content license listed at Category:Wikipedia non-free file copyright templates. However, it is believed that the use of this work in the article "SS Avoceta"

to illustrate the watercraft in question
where no free equivalent is available or could be created that would adequately give the same information
on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,

qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Fair use and Wikipedia:Copyrights.
Fair use

To the uploader:

Please add a detailed non-free use rationale for each article the image is used in, which must also declare compliance with the other parts of the non-free content criteria, as well as the source of the work and copyright information.
For example non-free use rationales, see Wikipedia:Use rationale examples.
This tag should only be used for watercraft images.
Template:Non-free use rationale may be helpful for stating the rationale.

To patrollers and administrators: If this image has an appropriate rationale please append |image has rationale=yes as a parameter to the license template.

I claim that this image qualifies for fair use in the SS Avoceta article because

It is a low resolution version of a copyrighted image
It is impossible to create a free version since the ship in question was sunk
The image is necessary to illustrate the article
