Removing weathering in timber

Hi guys, I'm giving my Seacraft a makeover as it was pretty down, the paint was very thin, (clear varnish) and there is some blackening in the timber on the ply transom and the meranti gunnels, any tricks for removing this or masking it in some way? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Cheers, Troy
