How many coats of epoxy?

I'm at the stage of coating the plywood deck of my Chesapeake 17 LT. I plan to roll the epoxy on with a 1/4 inch foam roller, and add additional coats as soon as the preceeding coat has set up. I'm looking for any advice/suggestions on this critical phase. Most imporant, how many coats do most people use? Also, what pitfalls to watch out for, helpful tips, etc. Thanks!
