On July 24, 2015, 14-year-old Austin Stephanos and his friend Perry Cohen left Jupiter Inlet, Florida, on Austin’s 19-foot single-engine Seacraft for a planned near-shore fishing trip. A storm with strong winds developed that afternoon and the boys never returned. Their last contact with family was a text and a Snapchat photo sent in the early afternoon.

A large search by the U.S. Coast Guard and volunteers covered more than 50,000 square miles before being called off on July 31, 2015. The boys’ boat was sighted two days after they disappeared and was not recovered until March 2016 off Bermuda; items recovered included Austin’s iPhone while life jackets and a cooler were reported missing. The boys’ bodies were never found and they’re presumed lost at sea. Families later pursued legal action and Austin’s family created the AustinBlu Foundation to promote boating safety and emergency beacons.

If anyone was on or near Jupiter Inlet on July 24, 2015 and remembers seeing the boys or their boat that afternoon, please share what was seen.
