Pine was original (so was painted pine) so I kept it the same. I thgink it goes better with the yellow than a darker wood. I used six coats of spar varnish. Its marine grade. You might want to keep a test sample and try mainly a varnish, because varnish will also darken the wood slightly.

Some people are like Slinkies... not really good for anything, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.
