If it passes you on the way down in 2 seconds, it took 1 second to reach its peak height.
Vf = Vo - 32t = 0 = Vo - 32(1) making the initial upward velocity 32fps and the velocity when passing you the same 32fps.
The distance from you to the water is derived from d = Vot + 32t^2 = 32(3) + 16(3)^2 = 96 + 144 = 240 ft.
