David Stortz, 41, disappeared on August 29, 2000, after setting out alone for a day of clamming off Rockland, Maine. He was in a 12-foot boat and had placed a plastic lawn chair on board, seating himself higher than the boat’s gunwales. At some point the boat was hit by a wave and he was thrown into the water while the small vessel drifted away.

He was described as a White male, 5 feet 11 inches, 170–175 pounds, with brown hair, brown eyes and a scar on his elbow. He was last seen wearing a light blue t-shirt, jeans and a khaki baseball hat.

Does anyone who was on the water near Rockland on August 29, 2000, or who knew David, have details that might fill gaps about that outing or the search that followed?
