Daniel Miller was a young man in his early twenties who went to sea aboard the commercial fishing vessel Lady Luck when it left Portland, Maine, in the winter of 2007. He was described as White/Caucasian, brown hair, hazel eyes, and about 5 feet 9 inches to 6 feet tall, 150 to 170 pounds. He was sailing with friend and fellow fisherman Sean Cone.

The Lady Luck departed Portland around 7:00 p.m. and was transiting toward Gulf of Maine fishing grounds. The last vessel monitoring transmission came at 10:03 p.m. On February 1, 2007 the vessel’s EPIRB sent a 406 MHz distress signal; the Coast Guard searched and recovered only an oil slick and a small debris field. Neither Daniel nor Sean was recovered. An ROV later found the 52-foot steel-hulled boat on its port side in roughly 530 feet of water, with windows intact and no obvious catastrophic hull breach. Investigators judged rapid capsize the most likely cause.

If anyone knew Daniel, his movements that winter, or the Lady Luck’s condition before it sailed, please share what’s remembered or any information that could help.
