Or... you could use 5200 or epoxy to fill the hole, add some gelcoat to get the color right. Allow about the same time to cure as your "fix", then sand/finish off the gelcoat at a later date when you feel like making it look good. Accomplishes the same result without the ghetto fabulous, shade-tree mechanic look of your repair.
Not to flame you, but if you're going to take the time to fix the hole don't make it look worse doing a half-assed repair job.
