Aluminum Mast Ripples

Ahoy , upon close inspection of my aluminum Forespar tapered mast, I noticed distinct ripples on the surface, above the upper spreader bases, and going up each side of the mast. These ripples were on the welded line of the mast taper.
Could these ripples be puckering from the welding heat, and are they a common occurence to be expected ?
