If you are only losing bottom at speed it is most like turbulence over the transducer face.
There is no setting that can cure it. Do you have a picture you can post of the display at speed?
I do not. I will try to get one next weekend when I am on the boat again. I think you are correct, when the boat was out of the water last I thought I noticed the caulk around the transducer needed some work.
