16 foot Dauntless 1999 have cracking on 1 side (stbd) above the rub rail. Can I fix it or is it a professional thing?
Sorry new to this whole trying to repair a boats fiberglass.
They appear to be hairline in nature, but some of them are slightly rasied, I am nervous that the white base maerial is going to flake off at some point. THe cracks look like they radiate from under the rub rail through the curve up to just below the flat suface you would stand on.

What kind of cracks? Stress/Hairline? Impact? Photos would help but a little better description is needed.
