Found a snippet of the tornadic waterspout off the nsw south coast during the Sydney to Hobart yacht race. Wonder if the full video is available somewhere?

Was looking through my archives this morning and found some video grabs and data for this event. More photos are available here (http://australiasevereweather.com/tornadoes_australia_pre2004.htm) and here (http://australiasevereweather.com/tornadoes_sydney_to_hobart.htm).

Speed shear is impressive on these morning soundings. No doubt the coastal location of the event saw some strong direction shear later in the day.
