Material: EPOXY SEALER COAT/HATCHES

I'M GOING TO APPLY A SEALER COAT TO THE OUTSIDE OF THE GUILLEMOT BEFORE I SEPARATE THE DECK FROM THE HULL BUT SHOULD I ALSO SEAL THE INSIDE BEFORE FIBERGLASSING, ANY ADVANTAGES OR DISADVANTAGES?
I'M ALSO SURE I WANT HATCHES IN THIS BOAT. IT SEEMS LIKE HAVING HATCH HOLES WOULD EASE THE JOB OF APPLYING THE INNER FIBERGLASS TAPE WHILE JOINING THE DECK TO HULL.AGAIN CAN YOU THINK OF ANY A. OR D.? I PLAN TO USE THE HATCH CUT OUT OF MY EXISTING DECK AS PER NICK SCHADE'S BOOK.
