[Paddlewise] Fiberglass Damage

After sharing a garage with an idiot for part of the winter, I pulled the
boat out for its 1st paddle of the season and found a large whole in the
fiberglass.

Looks like something was dropped on it, the gel coat is shattered and the
interior lining coat is cracked.  Unfortunately I was in the water for an
hour before I realized it was damaged, so the glass is now wet.


What's the process to get it back in shape?
