Get a straight edge and bring the motor to neutral trim, see where the cavatation plate lines up should 1 to 1 11/2" above the hull bottom. Props with long blades or alot of cup can go higher

Dixon is right, but if you do go higher, IMO, you gotta have a water pressure gauge or low-water pickup, or better yet, both.
