Bonifacio ’Ben’ Cantu, Jr. was 38 when he went missing after the fishing vessel Kimberly sank about 80 miles northwest of Dutch Harbor, Alaska, on May 20, 1985. Four crewmates were rescued from the Bering Sea but Cantu was not among them; he was reported lost and never found.

A search was conducted and later called off, according to contemporaneous reporting from May 22, 1985. The case remains a stark illustration of the risks faced by fishermen in Alaskan waters.

Did anyone aboard the Kimberly or in Dutch Harbor at the time have information about the sinking or the search efforts?
