Indoor varnishing is more fun. I replaced a painted railing in my house
with an oak railing I bought from a local supplier. Came unfinished.
Three coats of matte spar varnish seemed sufficient. I long ago decided
NOT to own any more boats with significant exterior brightwork.

I remember in the 1950s a Penn Yan and then a Wolverine my dad gave me
with all sorts of varnish work. In fact, the entire Wolverine was
varnished mahogany, inside and out, ply and solids. Every single
surface. I kept the finish decent with many coats of wax and a fresh
water washdown. They were beautiful boats.

Here's a photo of one of those wonderful old Wolverines...
