When we do 2 coats, the first coat uses just over 1 gal, and if we're really stingy we can get a second coat with the remainder of the second gal. Our hulls are pretty smooth, without much build-up, so that helps too. Good luck and all the best.....

It was always a little less than 2-gallons for my 32, so that sounds right.
