Hmmm ... if was me, I'd file it under "health and safety", and consult with
an expert. If there's no safety problem, maybe mark the extent of the
cracking (indelible marker), leave it as is, and check the bottom of the
boat once in a while ... and maybe you and your passengers should wear those
PFDs at all times :-) I'm just thinking that if the hull is seriously
cracked, and safety is an issue, patching is imo not the solution.

Yes, visible from the outside. From the inside I can't see due to the
floor
being in the way.
I have an outboard on this boat.
My intent is outside repair only.
