Try some stuff called Fiberal. You can get it at most Auto paint supply stores. Fill it in the crack then sand it. It's a lot like Kitty Hair if you are familliar with fiberglass products, but better IMO.
It won't be as good as if you fully repaired the crack properly, but will get you through the weekend for sure.
Godd luck!

Be careful, the crack may have been there for awhile. Your keel stringer may be rotted out. Ouch, expensive.
