looking at a hunter 240- it has a known issue with gelcoat cracking where it fits against trailer bunker

That looks deeper than most gelcoat crazing. I’d grind down to solid, undamaged surface. If that’s just through the gelcoat than no big deal - you could just fair and gelcoat it back over, maybe with a layer of of glass beneath the fairing to add some stability. If the crack goes into the fiberglass laminate than you’ll need to rebuild with glass to replace whatever is ground out with good solid laminate.

Those look like more than the usual gelcoat cracks. Follow @Davidasailor26's advice and investigate further.

It doesn't look like the boat is sitting on the trailer properly which could cause the cracks and potentially damage the hull structure. Do you have more photos showing how the boat sits on its bunks and the trailer?
