it's only the Gel coat my 1991 Lunar is the same ,Isuppose you could have it re-Gel coated and there used to be a Filler/Under coat for fibre glass so it is possible to spray over the crazing .Personaly can't be bothered it's just cosmetic.

Above post is correct.  You could rub it back just to roughen it, fill it with fine filler/stopper give it a rub with 1200 grade wet and dry (used wet) and prime/paint it. That would restores the cosmetic looks.
