The boats we've had soda blasted at the yard end up with a rougher finish than what you're getting.
You could try a higher grit, might go a little faster.
Planning on painting or leaving it gelcoat?
If your painting, the texture left after a soda blast with a quick once over with 80 grit is perfect for a few coats of interprotect 2000 then bottom paint.

If your going to leave it gelcoat I'd stay with a finer grit, but get ready to spend some time under the boat.
