I've got a few of these holes in my fiberglass hull where the white layer you see in this picture is busted off. Any recommendations on a white inconspicuous compound to cover them would be appreciated. Thanks!

they sell little gelcoat kits in most hardware stores just for that, I'd wipe it down good first with some denatured alcohol to get any moisture out and clean the surface.

another vote for the gelcoat repair kit, they come with tint, so that you can match the color. Clean it good first, and should be good to go

I actually tinted white Marinetex for a gouge I got last year, doesn't match perfect but it's good enough!

You obviously wouldn't need to tint it!
