Jamie Manuel Rogerio, 34, was a crewman aboard the 112-foot trawler Uyak II when the vessel capsized and sank off the southern end of Kodiak Island on November 5, 1987. The Uyak II went down about 20 miles south of Sitkalidak Island with six people aboard. The captain and one deckhand were rescued from a liferaft; Rogerio and three other crewmen — Gregory D. Klinkenburg, Donald Brand, and Hee K. Charlie Im — vanished and were never found.

A U.S. Coast Guard-led search, joined by commercial fishing vessels, combed the Gulf of Alaska but turned up no trace of Rogerio or the other missing crew. He is presumed lost at sea. The sinking is recorded as the capsizing and sinking of the U.S. Fishing Vessel Uyak II and stands as a reminder of the hazards faced by Alaskan fishermen.

If anyone knew Jamie Rogerio or has information about the Uyak II’s final voyage, please share what you remember.
