hi..cant really see whats gone on there but take the parts apart and soak in warm water for 30 mins or so and then put them on a flat surface and place another flat surface on top so it holds the parts flat and leave until dry..and then clamp on a board like this..see pic  cheers benny

As long as the bottom of the keel frames are sat flat and level on the work surface then all is well, the slight bow you have picked out with your rule is the natural end to end deck slope which is how it is meant to be.
