Clare Louise Christie, 25, was last seen on March 30, 1977, near Eureka, California. Officially she was declared lost at sea, possibly at the mouth of Humboldt Bay, but no body was recovered and there is no concrete evidence she was on the boat when she disappeared. Clare was the wife of Ernest Christie Jr., a man later implicated in other serious crimes, and that connection has prompted persistent questions about whether foul play played a role. Some observers say the lost-at-sea account might have been a diversion from a more sinister explanation; others note only that the facts remain unresolved.

Clare’s name is included on the Fisherman’s Memorial in Humboldt County, yet the lack of physical evidence and unresolved questions about her husband’s later activities keep the case open. Does anyone have information about Clare’s last known movements or the circumstances around that March 30 outing?
