James, are you sure the hull has moved inward or has the deck expanded. Does the hull fit too tight on the strongback and forms? By how much is it out? Did you place any layers of carbon fiber strips in the deck or hull? Carbon fiber bracing strips will really stiffen the hull/deck.
Consider the following solution if the hull has move significantly inward:
To avoid changing the shape of the deck, you might want to tack in a station or two with hot glue on the hull in the problem area, maybe with some cut away marks with hot glue tacks, so you can knock them out later. Of course do not run interior fiberglass tape on the sheerline up the stations. Only fiberglass within one to two inches of the temp. stations, so it is easier to knock out the stations. Make sure no epoxy gets on the stations. Later run a small overlapping patch of fiberglass tape, after you removed the temp. stations. No would ever know you had a problem here.
I think this is where ET was going...
