agree k33pwalkin : da, e vorba de o metoda ilegala de deversare a apelor de santina netratate; traducerea sintagmei plus o scurta explicatie should do it

agree Liviu-Lee Roth : este o țeavă care "pe șest" se conectează la evacuarea din santină și deversează direct în ocean, după care se demontează. este ilegală prezența ei pe un vas. De aceea îi zice "magică", fiindcă apare și dispare
