Jason Heath, a 35-year-old resident of Upper Sugarloaf Key, Florida, went missing on November 22, 2021. He was last seen around 2 p.m. that day, leaving his family’s residence aboard his 25-foot blue Panga boat, equipped with a white Suzuki 150 horsepower motor. His destination was unclear, and the weather later turned rough as a squall passed through the area. Heath was last heard from around noon, and his last known location was confirmed via a cell phone ping near Cudjoe Key at 3:15 p.m.
The U.S. Coast Guard, along with other local agencies and volunteers, conducted an extensive search covering over 15,000 square miles of ocean. Despite these efforts, no trace of Jason or his boat was found during the initial search, which was suspended after six days due to the lack of new leads. His family, determined to continue the search, offered a $25,000 reward for any information that could help locate him or his vessel.
Jason’s disappearance remains a mystery, with no definitive evidence of what might have happened. His boat was later found on one of the Barracuda Keys, leading to the possibility of a boating accident, but no other concrete clues have surfaced. The case remains open, and his family continues to appeal for any information that could bring closure to this tragic event.Last Seen: Nov 22, 2021
