stress cracks on my boat we’re easy to find since it was white, they were from years of bad drivers. There simply cracks in the gel coat if you only have a few you can groove out the crack with a die grinder and use fiberglass filler to fill them in and sand them down, if you have lots like I did your best bet is to grind out a large area down to the glass and put a layer of resin and mat over then fiberglass filler over that and sand it down smooth again. Some of the cracks looked like spider webs or bullseyes where they hit a blunt object when we ground those out some were actually soft underneath the gel. Remember most cracks are only cosmetic and most don’t leak there was a few on the bottom that we didn’t fix some were just to hard to get at and not worth the effort. I’ll try to post more pics
