Default Blending a scratch/ gouge

My boat got bumped into while in the yard. Not a big deal **** happens, but it needs to be repaired. The boat is ALL white imron or awl grip I can't remember, and cleared over. What are the chances a decent painter can repair this without a big discolored cloud on the side of the boat? I like the all white so I don't want to add graphics. That and I have no artistic talent so I have no clue what to put on it.

lil red here's the chitty part,,if its only a 4'' area the whole side still needs to be cleared so you wont see the azzhole effect in the clear..

Update* just got the boat back from being touched up. They did a great job and you can't see the repaired/repainted areas. Hopefully it stays that way. The local paint/body supply came to the boat and put there paint match gun to the boat in a spot the clear had lifted to get the paint code. It matches perfect
