When I coverd my boat, the squeegees were the most useful for the first coat. WHen I tried rolling, I got more air mixed in with resulting slight cloudiness.

The foam rollers are nice for the subsequent coats.

More than anything else, have plenty of help when fiberglassing / coating. Someone should constantly be mixing small batches of resin. I like 3 -4 pump batches. The resin flows into the glass best right after mixing.
Have 1-2 people to handle the bfabric and 1 to handle clean-up, drips, hold tools, etc.
