Missaligned!!

Here are the facts:

I've stripped the hull, fiberglassed the outside of it and put it down in the mold. Then I stripped the deck, with some fancy pine accent strips lengthwise.

Last week I pulled out the staples and began the fairing process. I can only work on weekends... Yesterday, when I was looking at the kayak I saw that it's really missaligned! I mean... I stand in front of the bow and see that the cockpit hole is visually displaced from the center line aprox 3/4" inch!. Looks like a banana!! (BTW, I've got her name!!).

Any suggestions? Paddling in circles is not my idea of fun...

TIA

Marcelo
