Phuong Hieu Tran was 25 and working aboard the fishing vessel F/V Retriever when he was last seen in Unalaska, Alaska, in the early morning hours between 1:00 and 2:00 AM on January 10, 2003. That night he borrowed a 1993 Ford truck and was seen dropping two other fishermen at the spit dock in Dutch Harbor. Two days later, on January 12, the rented Ford was found parked near the small boat launch by Alyeska Seafoods, close to where the F/V Retriever was docked, but Tran was nowhere to be found.

Tran is of Vietnamese descent, with black hair and brown eyes. At the time he disappeared he was wearing a black windbreaker over a gray hooded sweatshirt and black Adidas wind pants with a white stripe, and had tattoos on his right breast and left finger. The Unalaska Department of Public Safety investigated but the initial inquiry produced few clues and the case went cold.

What details from that night or anyone who worked on the F/V Retriever might help explain what happened to Phuong Tran?
