Just trial and error. I've had pretty good luck with keel shots when using 8 for destroyers, 16 for heavy cruisers, and 24 for battleships. I seem to remember using 14 for the Agano light cruisers and somewhere around 24 for the Shokaku carriers, but I didn't write those numbers down. Some other depths I use are 10 for huge European liners, 14 for large old passenger carriers, and 22 for large modern tankers. I'd have to verify the 10 for the huge Euro liner is a keel shot because I aim for the front stack to get secondary explosions, but the 14 for the passenger carrier is definitely a keel shot because I aim for the aft mast and the ship usually sinks by the stern.
