Strip: Gluing deck and hull

Hi
I am building a great auk 14foot
Both the deck and the hull fiberglass is done
Im trying to join them together now.
The thing is that the hull seem to have "close" its less wider than the deck.
I did try to use the form to give back the original shape to fit the deck but there is still a gap around 1/4in

Any tips and ideas to join them correctly?
Thank you
