RedactedNarrative: On Friday, August 16, 2019, at approximately 1100 hours, Operator and Subject1 launched V-1, a 2001 24’ Robalo center console single engine vessel bearing Florida registration number FL 8086 LK, from the Port Canaveral boat ramp.  Port Canaveral security cameras captured footage of the two individuals launching the vessel at the boat ramp and leaving the port heading east, then northeast into the Atlantic Ocean.  At approximately 2000 hours, operator’s family members contacted the United States Coast Guard (USCG) to report Operator and Subject1 missing and overdue.  The family members advised the USCG that Operator and Subject1 were possibly going fishing near the 8A reef.  The USCG began their search and rescue efforts on the night of August 16, 2019.  
  
  On Saturday, August 17, 2019 at approximately 0700 hours, the USCG contacted the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office (BCSO) for assistance.  BCSO located the overdue boater’s truck and trailer at the Port Canaveral Boat Ramp.  At approximately 1300 hours, Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) personnel contacted the USCG and began assisting in the search efforts for the missing boaters.  The search included multiple federal, state, county, and local agencies as well as volunteers and private search groups that covered Florida’s coastline and into Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina.  
  
  The search for Operator, Subject1, and V-1 continued until approximately 2000 hours on Thursday, August 22, 2019, when the USCG and the Jacksonville Fire and Rescue Department (JFRD) suspended their search efforts.  The BCSO entered the occupants and the vessel into the missing persons and property database (FCIC/NCIC) as missing and endangered on Tuesday, August 27, 2019.  
  
   Search efforts for Operator, Subject1, and V-1 were unsuccessful and our investigation has exhausted any credible leads which might have helped locate them. We have been unable to find any further information as to the whereabouts of Operator, Subject1, or V-1 at this time.  This will remain classified as a missing persons case until additional information is discovered.
