minor finishing touch up question

I applied my 5th and final coat of helmsman spar urethane to the hull yesterday. I noticed a spot I missed along the sheer line, roughly 1/2" x 4" long. It's a dull spot from the wet sanding before the coat.

Should I try to touch it up, or is better to leave it? If I do touch it up should I thin the urethane?

   If it bothers you, just touch up the area of concern. You can thin if you did before, just don't use to much urethane so as to avoid the dreaded drips.

I'll reassess it at lunch time, it may not be as noticable as I think.

Here's what it's looking like. Lots of minor flaws but for a first time build I'm very pleased. The deck has 6 coats, the last 2 coats have a satin finish. The hull has 5 coats.
