They were towing the lift boat and pulled it within 40 yards, just about any basic trainee after 8 weeks with an M14 could pop someone at 40 yards.
Reported that the snipers had some sort of auto gryo device on their weapon's support that canceled out the wave action.
Still, Good shootin!
(my son in law, on the Denver PD, was a Murine sniper in the 1st Gulf War and underwent much the same training as the seals - like staying in the water for 24 hrs, or so).
