Summary

Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description	Picture of ship MV Butiraoi before sinking. The paint scheme is not representative of the state in which the boat was when it sank, but is the only picture to adequately show the size of the boat.
Author or copyright owner	Unknown, picture obtained from SBS News, who cite themselves as source for the image.
Source (WP:NFCC#4)	Original publication: https://www.sbs.com.au/news/aerial-search-for-kiribati-ferry-survivors-suspended Immediate source: https://www.sbs.com.au/news/aerial-search-for-kiribati-ferry-survivors-suspended
Date of publication	2 February 2018
Use in article (WP:NFCC#7)	MV Butiraoi
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8)	The image serves to show the MV Butiraoi which sank in late January 2018, killing 81 people.
Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1)	I have looked throughout the internet, and I believe only 2 images of the boat exist. Both are not free, and this is the one that shows the size of the ship, important for providing context as to how overloaded it was. It is not possible for a replacement to be created as the ship now lays in the bottom of the Pacific.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3)	The image is shown once in the article, and the image is already lossily compressed. It's already cropped to just the boat, and I don't believe that quality could be reduced without losing details. Its size has been further reduced, and the previous version has been deleted.
Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2)	The image itself was used as supplementary material for an article reporting on the disaster. I do not believe that the image competes with the reporting of SBS News more than a month after the article's publishing.
