Water Talkies

Water Talkies

Invented by Rich Stachowski, Jr. in 1995 (at age 10), Water Talkies are a device which makes talking underwater possible. [ "Teen Titans." Pg. 127. People Magazine. 8 November, 2004. ]

The Water Talkie is a colorful, cone-shaped device that amplifies voices underwater for up to 15 feet. What started as one product turned into a company producing water toys "made by a kid for kids" - a line of eight pool toys. [ Pentz, Michelle. "No Shortage of 'Big' Ideas." East Bay Business Times. 4 December, 1998. ]

Inventor, Rich Stachowski, won the 1999 Entrepreneur of the Year Award (the youngest ever) for this invention. [ [http://www.sptimes.com/2003/03/03/Xpress/Young_and_inventive.shtml Xpress: Young and inventive ] ]
