Issues with False Deck Fitting

[TheWanderingGatherer]

Hello all!

After some research and anxiety, I have started work on the hull of my Fram (from Occre). It is my first real model (finished one cheap fishing vessel) so I might even butcher nomenclature..

I ordered Ship Modeling Simplified, but it was three weeks away, and after watching some tutorials (for Fram and for other ships) I figured I could at least do the bulkheads (mistake!). I learned from my mistakes in my trial model and was sure that if everything is perpendicular I cannot go wrong (mistake, again).

The second part of the false deck fits perfectly. The main part has two or three big misfits, and I cannot figure out what the issue was. It seems to be at a completely wrong angle and is not flush. It seems to be the same on both sides! The deck is flush on the keel, so the bulkheads seem too low? When I glued them, they looked to be at a right angle. I checked a few times, but I might not have been exact enough.  

Of course, now I have the book and I see I should have checked the symmetry and other things.

My question is: how bad is this? Can I still fix it? Worth it to (try) unglue? Or just sand it down? 

Any feedback appreciated.

If the bulkheads are square, I wouldn't worry about it.  The backbone being higher in front of the bulkheads  is because of the slope of the deck.  I would sand them down to  accommodate the slope.

Yes, I could not figure if i was meant to do more for the slope or not. 

Will fit with the deck again and sand down where there is bad overlap only on the bulkheads.
