Randall Torrey Petty, 41, disappeared from a tugboat near St. Michael, Alaska, on August 16, 2002. He was working aboard the vessel when he went overboard; reports say he was simply gone from the boat and the Alaska State Troopers were notified the same day.

Petty was described as 5 feet 9 inches, about 190 pounds, with black hair, hazel eyes and tattoos on his right wrist and both upper arms. A search of his cabin turned up some clothing, including blue jeans and a black flannel shirt; he may have been wearing a ball cap and black tennis shoes when he went missing.

There are no clear eyewitness accounts or definitive evidence explaining how he entered the water, and the search was hampered by the vastness and unpredictability of the area. Does anyone who worked on or near tugboats around St. Michael in 2002 recall seeing Petty or have information about that day?
