Hi I have done the same thing, just bought a couple of cans of primer and black spraypaint from supercheap, seemed to hold up o.k

They are fibre glass so a good machine buff ( a poper machine like a car painter uses) would bring it back up. Fibre glass does not respond that well to heat and painting it black prob wont be the best. Team NZ did extensive medling with the boats to make them black and not bubble and bake themselves to bits.
But if you want to do it I would suggest a good fibre glass primer then undercoat and paint.
