Dean Allen Harvey, 49, a crab fisherman from Anacortes and a member of the Port Gamble S'Klallam Tribe, went missing on a November morning in 2014 after heading into the San Juan Islands to check crab pots with his brother Robert Romero. The brothers left separately around 8:30 a.m., agreed to meet back in Anacortes at 3:30 p.m., and Harvey never arrived. He was last seen in Friday Harbor wearing yellow bib overalls, a black hooded sweatshirt, a green raincoat, a dark beanie, and black neoprene boots, and was not wearing a personal flotation device.

Stormy seas that afternoon complicated the response. A multi-agency search covering 909 square miles over 24 hours located Harvey’s 18-foot boat overturned and grounded on rocks near the southeast corner of Lopez Island, but there was no sign of him. The official search was suspended late Wednesday afternoon; family, friends, and tribal members continued shoreline searches and outreach. Harvey is presumed lost at sea, and his disappearance remains unresolved.

Did anyone in the area at the time see an overturned 18-foot boat or notice any sign of Dean after he left Friday Harbor?
