Enroute Beaufort Day 3

Day 3 noon-to-noon run was 162nm.
Good sailing overnight until midmorning. Then we ran into a long squall line. Jumping out of this squall was the longest lived, largest waterspout (tornado over water) that I have ever seen. DRopped the sails and pushed the Yanmr harder than it has been pushed in a long while. First east, then hard south to get out of its track. It had this clear funnel from the cloud top halfway to the water. Then it was explosive looking on the water.
I could live a long time without those. Did get a few pictures to post.
