She Was Missing at Sea - Then a Wyoming Kitchen Window Told the Truth

A propane canister in a Wyoming kitchen window broke a maritime mystery: a woman listed as missing at sea for eleven days was still alive, and the small red-valved camping canister visible from the street was the clue. How did a thirty-eight-foot sloop, a failed satellite update, and a single upright canister in a landlocked home link a drifting hull two hundred and ten miles southwest of the Mississippi Delta to a Wyoming house?

In this episode, we follow the timeline from a January 14 meter-reader’s stop in Mineral Fork to the storm that crippled Jessica Evans’s boat and the Coast Guard search that went the wrong way; we trace the equipment she carried, the course changes she made, and the small domestic detail that ultimately reframed the search. What did that canister mean, and where was Jessica when someone finally noticed it?

Person: Jessica Evans
Date: January 3 (mast failure and EPIRB activation) and January 14 (meter-reader stop)
Location: approximately 210 miles southwest of the Mississippi Delta; Mineral Fork, Wyoming
Vessel: Interval, 38-foot sloop
Item observed: single upright 16-ounce propane canister with red valve cap on kitchen counter

- Jessica left Port Sulphur, Louisiana on December 8 with a thirty-day provisioning plan.
- The mast folded against the starboard rail after a 14-foot wave struck at 2:17 a.m.; the rig went overboard around 3:00 a.m.
- Jessica activated her EPIRB at 3:04 a.m., which Coast Guard New Orleans logged and used to start a search.
- Interval carried a watermaker, EPIRB, handheld VHF, satellite communicator, and a ditch bag; a partial 16-ounce propane canister lived upright on the chart table.
- On January 6 Jessica began rationing water with 23 liters remaining.
