> Mike I had a similar problem with my panache hull. After going through some tense hours of what to do I decided to slowly get it back into form. I inserted spacers in the hull that would slightly pry the hull back to were it should be. It took a few days using progressly larger and larger spacers but I slowly got it back to were it should be. Good luck and don't panick.
