do you have tank boots?

[WesTexDiver]

My tanks and all 50 something of our shop tanks all have boots, including the AL80's

you've never heard the sound of a tank falling over because no one but a boot on it? Good! It's not a good idea to toss around tanks with such a capacity for joules.

On my singles, Yes
Small doubles, Yes
Big doubles, No (to tight of a fit)

Only use boots on round bottom steel tanks. They are not recommended for Al tanks. They trap salt water and cause premature corrosion.

That is the only thing my tanks wear. No hats or shirts....

Not sure on the AL tanks corroding beyond the sealing 'skin' of Aliminium Oxyde. Once that is in place, the system is sealed...?

I made them remove their boots so my white carpet would stay clean.:14:

My garage has a pile of boots behind the tractor.

If you’re diving on my boat you will have boots on your tanks – unless they’re round bottom doubles in which case I have some old rubber floor mats I lay out for the tanks to rest on and while putting them on.

I do slide the boots down after every couple saltwater dives to rinse the bottoms real well.
