Transom replacement

[Mulv80]

OK, I started digging out the old wood in the transom with a chainsaw. I noticed the transom looks like it has a slight curve to it in the middle. I think the curve is a design element and not from fatigue, I could be wrong. However it looks as though Wellcraft made these transoms in three pieces with an epoxy seem joining the three pieces together. Question 1, Does this sound right to you guys? Question 2, Am I right that these boats have a slight curve to the transom?
