Strip: Colour free epoxy and varnish

Hi All.
I'm getting near to cmpleting the woodwork on a Guillemot
with/for my oldest son. He has chosen a crossover design
similar to Joe Greenley's "Return", with white ash, and wenge
for the black.
I think we will use West System with their new 207 hardener as
I understand this to be better than the old stuff, being quite clear
of colouration. Is that right?

Also on my other boats I have up to now used International's
Spar varnish, but it has a distinctly yellow colour after application.
Can anyone recomend a colour free varnish that will still give UV
protection.
