Myron Joseph Rapacz, 55, was last seen in the Naknek area of Bristol Bay, Alaska, around August 22, 2005. A lifelong outdoorsman who moved to Alaska in 1984 to work as a commercial fisherman, Rapacz had just become skipper of his own 32-foot gillnet vessel, the Cory B, in 2005. He was reported missing after a period of high seas while believed to be heading north from Cape Craig.

Searchers including the U.S. Coast Guard found debris from the Cory B about two to four miles north of Coffee Point, and a storm in the area is thought to have caused the vessel to founder. Despite sea and land searches, no sign of Rapacz was located. He had lived a subsistence lifestyle in Alaska, worked summers as a fisherman, spent winters hunting and taking on various jobs, and had served as a certified EMT and ambulance driver.

Does anyone who fished or lived around Naknek in August 2005 remember conditions or saw anything that could help clarify what happened to Rapacz?
