It appears not structual as mentioned above. Therefore, I would try this simple inexpensive repair first.
Try this 2-part Epoxy @ 50/50 mix.

Clean the area first with acetone. Use the mix and spread with putty knife. It hardens and sands like your gel coat / fiberglass. Most likely, you will need a 2ND application after the first sanding to get it smooth. Use 150 grit then 220 then 400. Dries white and can be topped off with paint. Easier than laying glass upside down
