Yohannes Arronte-Valdez was 28 when he went missing after a boat trip from Miami to Cuba on October 15, 2008. During the journey the boat sank; a friend was later rescued from an uninhabited island but Yohannes was never found and is presumed lost at sea. Search and rescue teams recovered no trace or remains.

He is described as a Hispanic male, 5 feet 7 inches to 5 feet 8 inches, about 170 to 175 pounds, with black hair, brown eyes and a noticeable scar on his head. The Miami‑Dade County Sheriff’s Office classifies him as a lost or injured missing person and continues to list the case as active.

If anyone was on that route in October 2008, or has information about the voyage or the vessel involved, please share what is known with investigators.
