Might be ugly but it doesn't look that deep, or structural. I've seen a few of the older ones where it's worn straight through to the keelson. At that point you have to dry them out good then grind back some and lay on some heavy roving layered up. It's easiest to do building it backwards...meaning take a large piece and wet it out, then a piece an inch or so smaller in diameter, then another an inch or so smaller, so it winds up looking like a hill on a topographical map...then apply the whole patch to the hull. Maybe 4-6 layers. Then some gelcoat then go fishing. But what do I know my boats 40 years old ;-). Pretty she aint, but she runs out well.
