Stress cracks

I am looking forward to getting back into sailing and am considering purchasing a Capri 14.2. It looks like it is in very good condition except for one thing. It has stress cracks on both sides of the hull just under the gunnels at "midships". The areas are about 12" square. It might just be in the top Gelcoat. Is this something common and moderately repairable? I would like to know a little more about this condition before making a bid on the boat. Having worked with fiberglass somewhat, is this something I should tackle or leave to a professional? Thanks for the help on this.
