Louis Craig Yates, 19, disappeared from Klawock, Alaska, on the evening of May 29, 1989. He was last seen in his skiff on local waters. Yates is described as 5 feet 9 inches, about 150 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. At the time he was wearing blue jeans, a white t-shirt, a red, white, and gray jacket, and high-top tennis shoes.

His skiff was later found on Peratrovich Island damaged and with its gas tank empty. Search teams combed land, air, and water but turned up no sign of Louis. The Alaska State Troopers opened a missing persons case; it is presumed he set out alone, though his intentions that night are unknown.

If anyone remembers Louis, saw his skiff around Peratrovich Island that evening, or has information that could help, please share what is known.
