A Coast Guard cutter and two helicopters are still searching for the final missing crew member from the fishing vessel Alaska Ranger, which sunk Sunday morning in the Bering Sea west of Unalaska. The missing man has been identified as Satoshi Konno, a Japanese national who was the fish master onboard the Alaska Ranger. Four members of the ship’s crew are confirmed dead, including the captain. About half of the survivors arrived in Unalaska before dawn today, and the rest are safe on board the Coast Guard cutter.

It’s a very dangerous profession to be employed with. My sympathies are with the families who have lost their loved ones, and the company who lost such brave and loyal employees. It’s is a very tragic event for all involved.
