" Hgiega "

[Tatanka]

Missieri kien jghamel hafna min dawn "Hgiega" imma  liktar li kien isib tajba dejjem kienu li ikollom hgiega mhux perspex ghax jekk il bahar ikun ftit imdardar ma tara kwazi xejn. Hija komda illi jkollok wahda minnhom fud dghajsa ghax ma tafx x tigi bzonn jidependi il fond ukoll.

Translation in English as this topic was in Maltese

My father used to have several made of these "Hgiega" & the best outcome was always when he used glass, perspex is not ideal especially if the water is not too clear you will see zilg. They are quite handy to have on board a boat as you never know when you might need it. obviously depending on the depth.

Why are they classed as illegal,afterall it just saves you putting a mask on to see below the surface?   

[LapsiBoy]

It makes no sens what  your saying mate. So if the ''Hgiega'' is illegal so should goggles/masks  be !
