Hi guys.Ive bought a used jetski hull, its made from carbon fiber with epoxy and resin infusion and vacuum bagging.
The hull from new, comes out in a black epoxy primer and then got painted, i guess gray primer and white base and final pearl white.
When i got it i noticed it had a little crack in the underside, i didn't appear of much and still don't know how much is affected. The other side of the hull (where the crack is, is closed, so i cannot "get my hands on that side") but i can see the other side of the spot and there is no sign of crack go damage, so the crack is not fully throughout the lamination.
So my question is, how should this be repaired for the best finish and result (strength and finish) the bottom will be painted afterwards.
Ive watched this video a few times

Ive uploaded af few pictures of the spot I've sanded down a bit.
And a picture of a new sprayed hull, marking the place with a red circle.
How you guys have some tips and advice for me
