(AP) -- NFL Hall of Famer and former Jets great Joe Namath is offering a $100,000 reward in the search for two teenage fishermen along Florida's Atlantic coast. Perry Cohen and Austin Stephanos did not return as scheduled Friday from a fishing trip. Both are 14 years old, and they were last seen Friday afternoon in the Jupiter area buying fuel for their 19-foot boat The Coast Guard says a boat belonging to two boys has been found off Florida's Atlantic coast but neither boy was in or around the boat. Petty Officer Steve Lehmann says the boat was found Sunday about 67 miles off Ponce de Leon Inlet in Volusia County. According to the South Florida Sun Sentinel, Carly Black, the mother of Austin Stephanos said, "We are going to find them today. We are going to bring them home." Perry is Namath's neighbor in Tequesta. Namath held a news conference Sunday with the boys' families to announce the reward and appeal for information that could help the search. Namath said both boys are skilled boaters. He said, "We've got to believe in their wherewithal." Coast Guard air and sea crews have expanded their search farther north along the coast. The search so far has covered over 14,000 square nautical miles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ComfortablyNumb Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Some parent needs to be arrested. Letting two 14 year olds on an 18' single engine bay boat go to Bahamas is suicidal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jet_Engine1 Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Some parent needs to be arrested. Letting two 14 year olds on an 18' single engine bay boat go to Bahamas is suicidal. They didn't "let" them. If you don't know the story, keep your opinions to yourself. Bad scene here in Jupiter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
