On October 30, 1986, 35-year-old William Scott Lewis was aboard the fishing troller Danube in the Gastineau Channel near Juneau, Alaska. He was crewing a crabbing trip with Tom Kelly and William Bill Tugman when the vessel disappeared near Marmion Island and all three men were reported missing.

Search and rescue operations were launched in the Gastineau Channel but neither Lewis, Kelly, nor Tugman were ever found. Pieces of wreckage later washed ashore on Douglas and Admiralty Islands, confirming the vessel was lost, but the troller and the men were not recovered. The three are presumed to have died, yet no definitive account of what happened on that October day exists.

If anyone was in the Juneau area on October 30, 1986, or has information about the Danube, please share what is known.
