Default Hull Step Flair at Transom - Pics

I noticed something odd with the underside of my boat. The outboard step & Panel take a downward slant in the last two fee or so just ahead of the transom. Is this normal? My stringers are cut back about 1 1/2' to 2' from the transom but I don't think anything could have moved.

In my experience on these hulls they seem to flatten out on plane more so than anything else I am familiar with. This would explain that if its normal. If it's not than I have to straighten a hull.

The pics show where the step drops lower at the stern relative to the outside corner of the hull between the red arrows - then from a slightly different angle. The bunks go to within an inch or so of the transom so I don't think is flexing the bottom much at all.

Please tell me this is normal!
