Older fiberglass boat painting help

I have an old duo voyager fiberglass v-bottom boat. I use it regularly and try to restore it at the same time. The paint is all pretty faded. Top deck is like a tan color and the hull is a yellowish color. I would like to repaint the top half this year over winter in my garage. Is there a way to do this and have it turn out good? I do have an air compressor in my garage and have no problem buying a sprayer if needed. It has some chips in it here and there. I dont know if there is a gelcoat or not on it. I tried to brush paint a sailboat before with an epoxy marine paint and didnt like the results.
 
Both West Marine and Jamestown Distributors have excellent videos on hull painting.

I assume they are still accessible - I haven't looked at them for several years.
