What the National Weather Service wrote

Two waterspouts were observed on the Atlantic side of Key Colony Beach and Coco Plum Beach, moving eastward around 10 knots. The thin, tilted condensation funnel clouds extended one-quarter of the way from cloud base to the horizon.

The wider storm

Convective cloud lines in a broad area of low level convergence associated with the southwesterly flow well south of the center of tropical cyclone Debby off the South Carolina coast resulted in scattered showers. Three waterspouts were observed, initially on the bayside, then later oceanside, of Key Colony Beach.

Began near Marathon (24.7100, -81.0000).
