Relu Cristian, 38, went missing from the container ship New York Express on January 30, 2003, after being seen in the Unimak Pass near Unimak Island, Alaska. The vessel was transiting from the Bering Sea when Cristian reportedly went overboard into the North Pacific. He is described as a Caucasian male with black hair and brown eyes, about 6 feet 4 inches tall and 181 pounds, last seen wearing dark clothing.

The Alaska State Troopers investigated the disappearance. The report states he went overboard, but the circumstances of how he entered the water are not detailed and no further significant information has emerged.

Did anyone who served on the New York Express or sailed the Unimak Passage at that time have information about what happened that day?
