Waterspout Throws Fishermen From Boat

POSTED: Thursday, June 1, 2006

Two fishermen said they were thrown from their boat early Thursday morning by a waterspout that formed in Biscayne Bay.

Jorge Diaz and a friend said they were fishing about 2 miles from Key Biscayne at about 3 a.m. when a tornado blew by, causing the water to spill into their boat and spin it "around and around."

The fishermen said they got scared and jumped out of the boat, swimming about 500 yards before the U.S. Coast Guard rescued them.
