Vongsa Keoboualapha, also known as Kong Vinxay and Vong Sa Keoboualapha, was 43 when he vanished from the Bering Sea on January 24, 1999. He fell overboard from the fishing vessel F/V Westpoint about 30 miles southeast of St. George Island, Alaska. He was not wearing a personal flotation device or an immersion suit when he entered the water.

At the time he was wearing orange rain gear, a green raincoat, green rain pants, a red top and black boots. A search was conducted but no trace of him was found; the Alaska State Troopers received the report the next day and the case was entered in NamUs as MP66527.

The documented facts center on the overboard incident and the subsequent unsuccessful search; little else about his disappearance has been publicly released. Did anyone who worked on the F/V Westpoint or was in the St. George Island fishing community in January 1999 have information to share?
