Richard D. Hurley, 26, vanished from the waters near Juneau, Alaska, on April 19, 1988 after a boating accident. A Caucasian male with brown hair and blue eyes, he was about 5 feet 11 inches and 180 pounds and was last seen wearing blue jeans and a brown pullover sweater. The Alaska State Troopers were notified and opened an investigation on April 20, 1988; the case file number is 880023214.

The account says the accident occurred on a boat near Juneau and that the region’s frigid water temperatures, strong currents, and extensive coastline would have made search and rescue efforts extremely difficult. Specifics of the accident and of any search actions are not provided, and Hurley is presumed deceased because he was lost at sea.

If anyone was in the Juneau area on April 19, 1988 or has information about boating activity that day, please share what is known.
