On Sept. 7, 2003, the body was found floating about 5 miles east of the Boynton Beach Inlet."
"The man was white and estimated to be between the ages 65 and 75, the sheriff’s office said. He was 6 foot 1 inch and 175 pounds, with hazel eyes and reddish-brown hair. The man had a distinctive maritime-style tattoo on his right forearm. Investigators are attempting to determine the tattoo’s origin and meaning."
