Hi Chris, and welcome.

If it was me, i would ring customer services and tell them your keel is warped and ask them to send out a replacement. It's what i did with mine, however i am still waiting for that issue to arrive!!!Mad

EDIT: part waiting for me when i got home today. Thanx

If its not too much then have a look at my build (the last post) I was briging up the idea for me that is to use filler blocks to help rid the keel of this issue, only if its not too bad.
