Brad,
When I was living in Northwest Florida I would see those occasionally. I was over in New Orleans once and saw 3 at the same time on Lake Pontchartrain. I would not want to be on the water when one came through. I can also tell you that you don't want to be 20 meters away from a lightning strike, damn near shit myself.
If there's a chance of waterspouts in the area, I would stay off the water until the weather clears up. You can't outpaddle mothernature.
