Default Replacing Carpet

I'm going to replace the carpet on my 1996 Shabah 180, I noticed that under the spots were the carpet has worn/rotted through, there is a fiber glas like coating that has craked and is comming off.

What is this, and is it easy to patch?

Thanks

Chris

    Found what looks like some good info here....

    Wood preservation, rot repair, and restoration using epoxy resin on boats, homes and log homes.
