How do you fix it, or at least make sure no water is going to be leaking into to the boat. Does it create a structual problem that you should be worried about?
If it ain't fried, it ain't cooked.

You can cut them out down to the glass,then fill them back with gelcoat.This should stop most of them. Big Mike

What Big Mike said is true, BUT if it was caused by flexing then it will come back unless you can add laminate to stop the flexing.

Can the laminate be mixed with the gel-coat or are they two different/seperate applications?

It is in most cases fiberglass.Gelcoat comes last.If your cracks are from flex its better to live with them If they dont keep getting bigger. Big Mike
