Water Talkies

Water Talkies are devices which makes talking underwater possible.^[1] They were invented by Richie Stachowski, Jr. in 1995 at age 11.^[2]

It is a colorful, cone-shaped device that amplifies voices underwater for up to 15 feet (4.5 meters). What started as one product turned into a company producing water toys "made by a kid for kids" - a line of eight pool toys.^[3]

Stachowski won the 1999 Entrepreneur of the Year Award,^[which?] the youngest ever, for this invention.^[4]
