Raul Marrero Diaz, 31, was last seen on January 13, 1998, when he and a friend, John Perez, left Miami for a fishing trip to the Bahamas in a blue and white 25-foot Offshore open fishing boat. Two other friends were in a separate boat that day. Rough seas reportedly caused Diaz and Perez’s boat to disappear from view, and neither the men nor their vessel have been found.

Diaz was described as 5 feet 7 inches, 180 pounds, with gray hair, hazel eyes and a scar on his back. The case is classified as a lost/injured missing case and remains under investigation by the Miami-Dade Police Department. There have been no signs of the men or the boat despite searches.

If anyone has information about Raul Diaz, his whereabouts, or that January 1998 trip, please contact the Miami-Dade Police Department.
