S&G: goof up revised

I need to clarify my last message (goof up). I curved the ends of the bottom of my kayak (stern and bow) the wrong direction. Instead of angling up from the bottom, they are angling down. The cuts have already been made. Obviously, I am an amature. (My Uncle, who got me into this project, is getting married in a few weeks and is too busy to help me). If I re-draw and re-cut the ends, my kayak will be 4-6 inches shorter. Would that be a problem? What else could I do?
