On August 30, 2022, Carl Joseph Flynn, 27, went missing after a planned boat trip on the Kuskokwim River. Flynn and two friends, Shane McIntyre and Justin Crow, left Bethel intending to set up a moose camp and return the same day. Their KingFisher boat was described as gray-black with Extreme Shallow written on its side.

Bethel Search and Rescue and volunteers mounted an intensive effort that included multiple boats, sonar searches and a dive team. Debris believed to be from the boat was found in Straight Slough. McIntyre’s body was recovered near Bethel’s small boat harbor on September 22 and Crow’s remains were found about 20 miles downriver in Napakiak Slough on September 23. The boat itself has not been located and Flynn remains missing; his family held a memorial service on October 22, 2022.

Does anyone who was on the river that day or who travels the lower Kuskokwim regularly have information about sightings of the boat or Carl Flynn after August 30, 2022?
