Austin Stephanos and Perry Cohen disappear while boating July 25, 2015

(CNN)Perry Cohen and Austin Stephanos have been boating for so long that they're just as comfortable at sea as they are on land.

That's the hope their families and friends say they're holding onto as Coast Guard crews search for the 14-year-olds, who went missing on a fishing trip off the Florida coast Friday.

"We just keep on praying, man," said Joe Namath, a renowned former NFL quarterback and neighbor of the teens. He told reporters Sunday that he was helping with the search, according to CNN affiliate WPTV. "It's hard, it's so hard, but we've got to believe in their wherewithal."
After nearly two days of searching, the Coast Guard said Sunday that teams had spotted the 19-foot boat in which the teens had been traveling. The capsized vessel was discovered 67 nautical miles off Florida's Ponce de Leon Inlet, the Coast Guard said.

The missing boys haven't been found. But officials say the search is far from over.

Coast Guard crews will search through the night, Petty Officer 1st Class Stephen Lehmann told reporters.

"This is still considered an active search and rescue case, and we maintain our perpetual optimism that we're going to find somebody," he said.

The capsized boat has given search teams a new launching point to refocus their efforts, he said. Using models of speed and currents, Lehmann said the search area is now about 33,500 square miles, roughly the size of Maine.
