So my handrails haven't been varnished in 5+ years and the time has come to get these suckers looking as good as the companionway hatch and salon hatches other bits I've managed to refinish this winter. I had originally planned on waiting till summer to varnish them, but varnishing them on the boat means 4-5 sunny/nice days spent sanding and varnishing that we *could* be out sailing. I wonder if maybe I should pull them, strip them, put all but the last coat of varnish on, and then reinstall them while it's still crummy out, and then when it gets nice put the last coat on (to cover over the plugs).
Is this a good idea? Am I just asking for a huge pain in the ass with the plugs and stuff?
