Go to home depot and buy the stripper in the spray can. I don't really remember the name, but the can was goldish in color. Spray it on, wait overnight, then it should flake off. Repeat if needed.

Clean, then finish with as many coats of spar urethane as you can handle doing. If you can get your hands on some 2 part stuff, try it out and let us know.
