Should the motor be ideally perpendicular to the bottom of the boat, or

Check out these short vids on trim.

You really should be able to adjust your trim while moving.
I found it very helpful even with a 5hp on a 12' boat.
That was easily done manually.
For a big motor I'd want a working power trim.
