David A. Miller, Jr. was 26 when he disappeared from the 48-foot wooden fishing vessel Curlew after it foundered and sank off Kodiak, Alaska, on September 30, 1984. The Curlew was near the southeast tip of Atkins Island, close to Koniuju Island, attempting to assist the disabled vessel Kelly Ann when it went down.

One person from the Curlew, identified as Ray Miller, was rescued by the Kelly Ann’s crew after they cut the towline and restarted their engine, but David Miller and two brothers aboard with him, Geoffrey and Philip Odonoghue, were reported missing and were never located. At the time he vanished David was about 6 feet tall, 185 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes, and scars above his right eye and on his chin.

Does anyone have memories of that incident or information about the men aboard the Curlew?
