That sounds to me like someone who does not want to do it, I had
all my tanks my K bottles and SCUBA tanks done at a place we buy O2 and Co2
from and cut the Scuba dealer right out of the picture, it was done in 3 days
and half the cost, open them up and do a visual on them yourself, just a
thought and oh you might run into the Luxfer Aluminum tank problem depending on
the age of the tanks most of them have been cut already but there are still
some out there Regards Brian V. Ryder CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This e-mail message, including any

[mailto:owner-personal_submersibles@psubs.org] On Behalf Of Smyth, Alec Hi all,
I went to
get visual inspections renewed on Snoopy's tanks and discovered a new rule. It
turns out that while the hydro is good for 5 years, they won't do a new visual
inspection on a tank with less than 1 year of hydro to run, and four of my five
tanks have 11 months of hydro left. It takes them a month to do a hydro, they
need to send the tanks off someplace, and so Snoopy is tankless for the trip. So… SOS!
Vance, is there a local dive store in Ft Pearce that I might rent some tanks
off? I'd like to rent four tanks for convention dive day. Thanks!
Alec
