Judders

My rudder is not flush to it's skeg. I am not sure whether the skeg is bent or if it's the rudder. Both look fine on their own, but there is a gap when the get together. Not withstanding the substantial prop-walk caused by the off-centre prop, there does not seem to be too much trouble but I suspect that the rudder may be getting bent as she sinks down into the gooey stuff so I'll more her without the rudder from now on. Does anyone know the best way to bend a rudder back to a shape that will line up with the skeg without getting too complicated? I believe the rudder is wooden.
