I'm not sure on a Seavette but they shouldn't have any tight bends in them that I remember. Heck my standard shift cable actually had a knot in it - I mean pulled tight too from when they pulled it through and it worked quite a while after I bought the boat - glad it wasn't the LU

I think those are needed more on flats boats, where the cable has 2 very tight turns out of the tube and then back to the motor
