: Hi Todd,

: Big mahogany runabout, 27' long, 10' wide and the sides averaged 5' tall, all
: varnished. Bought 7 cases of varnish (6 quarts to a case) for that
: project, still have a case or two left over.

: Bill H.

Thanks. You gave me a scare. I want all the UV protection I can get, but...

I know it's a kayak forum, but I'd be interested in seeing pics of the big boat. Sounds interesting. I've ambitions for a sculling shell, next. Never actually rowed (other than my Concept II in the basement), but I have a canal very close by that's just begging for some use. We'll see.
