Ran across this:

Anybody using one, or a facsimile?
Seems reasonable for seeing the anchor set in clear waters.

If the water's clear enough to use one, it's probably warm enough to
snorkel, which is faster and more fun. Reflection can be a problem with
the buckets.

My wife, who is not a comfortable swimmer, likes the boogie boards with
an imbedded mask. No reflection and her face stays clear of the water.
I've been weaning her off of that to a snorkeling vest, mask and
snorkel, but she doesn't get enough practice.
