Default 1/6 Hydroplane stuffing box

This is my first hydroplane. Need some help on the stuffing box. Pic shows how I think it should be. Full length tube all the way to strut. Or should I just have a partial tube and just run the back part of the cable to the strut? Tube is 5/16. Ran the drive cable through the tube pictured and it drags too much. Maybe I have to redrill the motor mount and decrease the stuffing tube angle?
