Was able to get the varnish sprayed on the weekend. He put three coats on in all. The finish did not end up "mirror" smooth, but I think it is going to have to do. Will try to get it back together this weekend.
Sole almost complete

Here's where you
break out the 1500 grit paper and wet-sand, then polish. Or you do like I did (when I painted my car and it looked like that) and wait months, then do it! I was tired of working on it and I wanted to drive it a while!

You put a lot of work into it
It really looks good. I think we are our own worst critics. Brian is right though, if you want a mirror finish, you got some sanding to do, I'd rather be sailing.

Good thoughts
that is, to be sailing. Man, I have been down almost three months by the time I get the boat back together. Think I will wait a year or two....maybe more to fine tune the finish. Thanks for listen and offering advise along the way. I will send more images when I get it in the boat.

Hey Kerry
I agree with the others. It will look great in the boat. I'm going to re-do mine with some stuff called ultimate sole. Anyone tried this?
