Your may be right Ken. 10, 11, 12 and 13 look as if they got mixed up. If the order is corrected, and providing the spacing is correct, it should work out.
There is a waterline marked, so that should help with alignment. It can help if you clamp a length of strip across each form at the waterline mark and then eyeball along the row to see if they are all even and level. Then check the keel line... I use fishing line.
A trick for the future... Paint your plywood or MDF white before marking and cutting your formers. It is way easier to see the setup lines.
