Dave...After the fact information. In a general conversation with a couple of friends that have boats both mentioned that when they put epoxy down and then varnish over the top, the epoxy started to cloud after a few years and that the varnish did not filter out enough uv. One was over teak and the other over mahogany.

Now maybe since you thinned yours down and your boat is a trailer queen and not sitting out 24/7 you will be safe...however if it starts to cloud you will at least know why.
