On the Aerocivic, I've had to compromise on the bottom angle to keep from dragging on a steep driveway entry. As long as you keep the top and side angles correct you be ahead of the game. Having a smooth underbelly transitioning to a diffuser on the underside of the boattail will help at reducing the drag increase of too sharp of an angle under the boattail.
