Looks to be plain white gel coat and lower stb corner so a blend not a big issue.
Sand area, rough up gouges with 60-80 grit, wash with acetone, fill with (looks to be just gel coat gouged, not glass) poly fare or other filler, 3 coats of gel coat, last coat sprayed mix 50/50 with duratech clear. Sand & buff.
1 day job for me.
You will need to redo the boot stripes also.

Tied up to a float in river with tide and wind against me...
Hadn't noticed rub guard missing but not the mounting screws...
Once I took off couldn't stop or end up on rocks......
It sounded just like it looks... :-(

Grrrrrr
First round of gel coat never hardened,,,
Had to scrape/clean it all offa d start over...
The hardner that came with the gel was junk,,, too old?
Picked up a new tube and gel went off like a rocket in this heat....

This is it for now... going fishing....
