Strip: order of fiberglassing

Everyone seems to glass the out hull first..inside..then go to deck. Would I have a problem with glasssing the top of deck first ( it's sitting on the forms), then doing the inside of deck. Take that off...turn boat over...do the hull exterior...turn over and glass inside...THEN replace the deck and do the seams???? Storing sanded boat till warmer weather...4 months...yes, it will be taped onto the forms. Just wondered if there was a specific reason why everyone does the hull first???
