You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.197.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 10:52, 20 August 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

== History ==
''Kuna'', the fourth in a series of steam icebreakers, was built at the Danziger Schiffswerft & Kesselschmiede Feliks Devrient & Co. in 1884.<ref name="Port Gorzów"/><ref name="Nam Gorzów"/> Initially, the ship was named '''''Ferse''''' (the German name for the [[Wierzyca]] flowing into the [[Vistula]] – all four ships were named after rivers in the lower [[Vistula Basin|Vistula basin]]).<ref name="Port Gorzów"/> In 1940, ''Ferse'' was renamed '''''Marder''''' ([[marten]] in German) and, in 1947, retained that meaning in Polish as ''Kuna''.<ref name="Port Gorzów"/> Throughout its service (except for the two-year period after the end of [[World War II]]), ''Kuna'' did not change its area of operation.<ref name="Port Gorzów"/>

Until 1920, the ship sailed for the ''Königlich Preussische Weichsel-Strombauverwaltung'' ([[Kingdom of Prussia|Royal Prussian]] Vistula River Works Administration).<ref name="Port Gorzów" /> After the creation of the [[Free City of Danzig]], it was handed over to the Port and Waterways Council together with the entire icebreaker fleet and sailed under the Danzig flag.<ref name="Ligocki">((cite web |last1=Ligocki |first1=Kazumierz |title=Kuna |url=https://encyklopedia.wimbp.gorzow.pl/k/kuna/kuna.html |website=Multimedia Encyclopedia of Gorzów Wielkopolski |publisher=Wojewódzka i Miejska Biblioteka Publiczna |access-date=1 July 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200922153558/https://encyklopedia.wimbp.gorzow.pl/k/kuna/kuna.html |archive-date=22 September 2020 |language=pl))</ref> During World War II, the ship sailed under the flag of the [[Third Reich]] and belonged to the Main Waterways Authority.<ref name="Ligocki"/> In March 1945, ''Kuna'' participated in the evacuation of the population of Gdańsk; it sailed to [[Kiel]] and [[Hamburg]], where it was taken over by the British occupation authorities after the end of the war. Under the British flag, it served in Hamburg as an icebreaker and port [[tugboat]] until 1947, when it was handed over to the Polish Maritime Mission.<ref name="Ligocki"/> After returning to Gdańsk, ''Kuna'' initially belonged to the Maritime Office in [[Gdynia]], which then handed it over to the State Water Authority in [[Tczew]], managing inland waterways. After the renovation at the shipyard in Pleniewo, ''Kuna'' returned, under the Polish flag, to service in the lower reaches of the Vistula River.<ref name="Ligocki"/>

In 1965, the ship was withdrawn from service, and in the following year reduced to an empty hull to be scrapped.<ref name="Ligocki"/> In 1978 the hull was towed to Gorzów Wielkopolski and used as a mooring pontoon.<ref name="Ligocki"/> In 1981 it sank in the shipyard basin and remained at the bottom for almost 20 years.<ref name="Nam Gorzów"/>

==Museum ship==
From 2001 to 2004, the locally-established Stowarzyszenie Wodniaków Gorzowskich Kuna ("Kuna Association of Gorzow Watermen") restored the vessel to its original appearance, collected documentation, and secured the necessary permits to allow a return to active service as a museum ship, providing educational trips.<ref name="Nam Gorzów"/><ref name="Ligocki"/>

In 2014 ''Kuna'' was transferred to its current owner, Przystań Gorzów ("Port Gorzów") which continues its intended programme of educational and recreational cruises on the river Warta.<ref name="Port Gorzów"/><ref name="Nam2014">((cite news |title=Kapitan Jerzy Hopfer zszedł z Kuny (tr.
