I torqued the five keel bolts on my 30-1 this spring (four at 350 ft-lbs, one at 250) by myself. The actual torquing part took about 15 minutes. Of course, the mast was off the boat, and I'd removed all the old bilge plumbing and cleaned the bilge. And I had to drive to a local rental place and rent a 650 ft-lb torque wrench with a four-foot handle and various sockets, adapters, and extensions, then drive to return all that crap afterward. If all your bolts were already accessible and clear, and the yard already had the torque wrench, I'd think a half-hour would be the actual amount of labor.
