One way to tell if there's been damage is to see if there's fiberglass patches where the resin used cured with a different color than the rest around it.
If you're looking at fiberglass, sometimes a bright
light behind it will show cracks through a structure. If not repaired, that could show areas where a little extra strength could be used but not the end of the world. I've at least heard of the
light method used on old boats, but I think they were not painted (bare glass on both sides).
Fiberglass repairs, when done right can be just as strong as the original structure.
