Default Which type of resin for boat repair?

Hi there.
I have a small (14 foot) grp boat which needs some repair work done to the
hull and cuddy.
My question is which type of resin should I use for the repair - epoxy or
polyester resin?
I have a feeling epoxy is best for marine applications but just want to
check.

Either is fine for fabrication, but polyester won't stick very well, so it
is not a good choice for repairs.
