Strip: Varnish - How long can I wait?

I finished my first stripper a few months ago, and have been paddling it quite a bit to be sure I goit it right before I do final details (deck rigging and maybe hatches, then clean up some fiberglass mistakes and the scratches that have accumulated, final sand and varnish ). I have not put any varnish on it yet. I was planning to wait until the fall to finish up. Will another few months of exposure to sunlight damage the fiberglass?

thx in advance
