Default topside painting advice

So I'm finally ready to paint the gunnel tops and inside of my 20' sf. All is primed and sanded. I will be spraying interlux perfection and adding All grip non-skid using the salt shaker method. Gunnel tops will get non-skid as will the deck of boat (I'll be attempting to replicate the original longitudinal strips of nonskid on the decks so this will require lots of taping).

I'm looking for advice on the order in which all this should get painted. I can't quite figure out how not to get tape lines if I paint the gunnel tops and interior walls first then later paint the decks. Some areas have good transition points where tape lines wont be noticeable but some areas don't. Can someone who has done this give me any tips on the order in which things should go. Thanks
