Christopher John Clark, a 30-year-old fisherman, went missing on April 21, 1987, when the fishing vessel Jamie Lynn sank while being towed to Dutch Harbor, Alaska—two other crew members, Anton Kochergin and Isaac Zacharof, also disappeared in the incident. The exact circumstances of the sinking and the fate of the three men remain unclear after nearly four decades. Anyone with information about this maritime disaster or the missing crew members is urged to contact the Alaska State Troopers.
