I worked evenings after work and all day on weekends. I did have a full week off from work that helped speed things up a bit. Some of the advice I got was to allow the epoxy to cure real well before varnishing, so I paddled the boat for another 6 weeks to make sure the epoxy was fully cured before varnishing 8^) I just finished varnishing and adding a rudder this past weekend, so I'm anxious to get back on the water! If you haven't visited Nick Schade's site yet, I highly recommend it.
