What's the magic spot for a thru hull water depth gage transducer on stepped hull?

I'm looking to relocate my transducer as it came unstuck from the old epoxy somehow. Must not have had it cleaned good enough when I installed it 3 years ago. Anyways, anything above s-n-w speeds, it would not read. I had it located directly below and centered under the engine. I noticed the old spot was just to the starboard side of center and mounted at an angle or chine. Is there a better spot that someone could fill me in on for my 25' Eliminator eagle hull that would possibly read a little bit faster speeds? Thanks.

+1 mine is just before the first step, reads fine at 70plus. I just always wonder if I am going to have enough time to slow down.

Interesting, unfortunately on my 25' Eagle that would put the transducer under the fuel tank. There are two holes moulded into the tank I suppose for strength maybe a transducer can be mounted where one of them are located after I foam the tank back in. Thanks for the heads up. Randy
