Yesterday my buddy and I did a couple shore dives at our local breakwall. It's a large wall made of huge granite slabs about 4' tall each, and they are sort of layered in big steps. To get into the water you kinda have to jump backwards off of the one closest to the water and splash in. The surf was pretty rough though, and I mistimed my jump. To make a long story short, I landed in about 2' of water and my tank smashed into the rock and then on into my lower back, leaving a rather nasty bruise. :icosm11:
Anyway, my back will heal but my tank got a couple of small nicks where it hit the rock, and now I am kinda concerned if I maybe fractured the metal or have made the tank unsafe. It hit fairly hard on the rock. Would this need a hydro now or what?
I would hate to see this thing explode on its next fill.
Thanks.
PS. this tank is a standard, catalina Aluminum 80
