Try to get the spread pulled in as best you can with tape ,sticks, clamps while it cures.
When you join the hull to the deck you will be able to push the edges to meet at the shear line.
On my first build,the halves did not match up very well ,but pushing and shoving while wrapping the whole boat with tape I was able to get the edges to match. It's easier to do than it appears at this point.
