Randall “Randy” Fuller was 20 years old when he was last known to be in Brunswick, Maine, on July 1, 1982. Public missing-person records describe him as a White/Caucasian male with brown hair and blue eyes, standing approximately 6 feet to 6 feet 3 inches tall and weighing about 165 to 175 pounds. He was reportedly wearing blue jeans and a T-shirt. The case is listed by NamUs as Missing Person case MP55092, with Brunswick in Cumberland County identified as the last known location. The available public record gives only a brief window into who Randy was, but it preserves the essential details of a young man whose disappearance has remained with his family, investigators, and the Maine coastal community for decades.
The central known event in Randy’s case began when he and his friend, Steven Westlake, went out in Randy’s 12-foot sailboat. According to public case summaries, the two friends did not return as expected. The available online records do not describe a long chain of sightings, conflicts, or movements before the disappearance; instead, they point to a sudden maritime incident in the waters off the Maine coast. Randy’s own NamUs-linked summary states that the boat was later found capsized approximately one mile southwest of Seguin Island. Steven Westlake’s related missing-person listing gives the same core account: Steve Westlake and Randy Fuller took Randy’s 12-foot sailboat out, failed to return, and the boat was found capsized near Seguin Island.
Seguin Island lies off the Maine coast near the mouth of the Kennebec River and the approaches to Popham Beach, an area where a small sailboat would have been exposed to open coastal conditions. The publicly available missing-person sources do not provide a confirmed, detailed reconstruction of what happened aboard the boat, and they do not say that Randy or Steven were recovered. What they do show is a case that appears to have shifted quickly from a missed return to a search for two young men after their vessel was found overturned. The lack of a recovery, combined with the brief official circumstances, leaves the story painfully incomplete: two friends went out together, something went wrong on the water, and only the boat was found.
The Maine Marine Patrol’s Augusta Headquarters is identified in the case data as the investigating agency, with an agency case number connected to the 1982 disappearance. NamUs lists Randy’s case as a published missing-person case, and the Maine State Police notes that Maine’s public missing-person lists are not necessarily complete because the Office of Chief Medical Examiner is the official state clearinghouse for missing people in Maine. That broader context matters because old maritime disappearances can remain publicly sparse even when agencies and families have held onto information, memories, and hope for many years. In Randy’s case, the official public record remains centered on a small number of facts: his identity, his physical description, the Brunswick last-contact location, the July 1, 1982 date, the sailboat outing with Steven Westlake, and the discovery of the capsized boat near Seguin Island.
Randy Fuller’s disappearance is therefore remembered as a coastal Maine missing-person case involving a young man, a friend, and a short sailboat trip that never ended with their safe return. The available public information does not provide evidence of where Randy went after the boat capsized, and it does not provide a final recovery outcome. What remains is a compassionate but stark overview of the case: Randall “Randy” Fuller, age 20, was last seen from Brunswick, Maine, on July 1, 1982; he and Steven Westlake took out Randy’s 12-foot sailboat; they did not come back as expected; the boat was found capsized about one mile southwest of Seguin Island; and Randy’s case remains publicly listed in missing-person records under NamUs MP55092.
