A good epoxy on bare wood can't be beaten. That's why boats use it.

Even better with a polyurethane topcoat to protect it from UV. As used
on Nuclear Fuel transport flasks.

Epoxy is prone to UV damage. I can't recall what the varnish on mine is.

Trouble I had is that once it had had a few bangs, then sat with a wet
canvas cover on it, the result was local damage.
