I would drop the back down slightly. 

At the moment it looks like the front is deeper than the trailing edge

 If using sidescan you should swap locations of your transducers as the sidescan should always be lower than any other transducer your running.

The tranny looks pretty good, a little tweaking on the water will fix that. The black socks in the back garden though, you're going to need to consult a specialist for that one.......:D

The ruler is a rough geese on where the water line is when traveling. But keep in mind that not all boats/hulls travel level some have bow up and the hull is not level. The water line needs to travel level with the center of the transducer.witch means that the back of the tranny will look as if it is pionting away from the boat a bit .If you travel slow when sounding then the tranny would be tillted slitely forward and the back of the tranny would be lower than the front in relation to the water line .

I personaly hate transome tranducers ,you cannot travel at a fast pace because it will cause a cavitation at the tranny and throw bubbles under the tranny.

Need clean water under the face of the tranny,cerved face is so it dose'nt cause bubbles .

Clean water= no bubbles
