Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP13978) and 1 other source
Joseph Harold Horrevoets, a 37-year-old man, was last seen on February 10, 2012, in San Diego, California. Joseph had been aboard a boat heading towards Rosarito, Mexico, when the vessel capsized in San Diego Bay. The Mexican Navy rescued one occupant from the boat, but Joseph remained missing. Despite search efforts, including a dive operation by the San Diego Harbor Police, no further trace of Joseph was found.

At the time of his disappearance, Joseph was described as 5'10", weighing 140 pounds, with blonde hair and blue eyes. He had a tattoo on his left arm and a scar on his chest. His case remains unsolved, and authorities continue to ask for information that may lead to new developments in his disappearance.
