Fred Jay Halsworth, 35, was last seen September 9, 1986, aboard the commercial fishing vessel Normar II about 70 miles northeast of the Pribilof Islands near Dutch Harbor, Alaska. He is described as a Caucasian male, six feet tall, about 160 pounds, with blond or strawberry blond hair and blue eyes; he was also known by the nicknames Alex or Alexander.

The Normar II swamped and then capsized in the Bering Sea, and the vessel sank with Halsworth and three crewmates, Kenneth Ridgley, Richard Bennett, and Annabelle Moser, aboard. The Alaska State Troopers were notified September 11, 1986, and an official report was filed. No survivors were recovered, and there has been no recovered wreckage or remains; the case remains an open missing persons investigation.

If anyone has information about the Normar II’s final voyage or saw the vessel in early September 1986, please come forward.
