The other night on CNN-ABC AU, 12/27/01, I saw some chilling vidio of a giant waterspout coming toward one of the racing yachts, the Nicorette. They tried to evade the waterspout to no avail. Then took down all their sails, battened down what they could, and it came right over them. They seem to have survived, losing their mailsail, but continuing on with a replacement one. Anyone else have any details on this? I've never seen anything so chilling.
