I made pretty good progress painting the hulls over the weekend. 

The vaka now has 4 layers of primer on the hull.  I have to give the primer a few days to fully cure before I can finish painting with Orcas White.  The directions say it can take up to 7 days, but the shop is sooooo hot during the day that my guess is I can top coat it Tuesday or so.

The ama hulls got three coats of clear gloss and look pretty good.  Of course they would have looked a lot better if I had taken more time to get a nice finish on the epoxy.  I plan to flip them over and paint the decks tonight.  If all goes well, I can finish rigging the amas tomorrow and they will be good to go.
