I overlaid the image of the Space Shuttle over your first design ( the short tail ) and the Shuttles' tail is much shorter than yours - but then I realized that I was not looking at it in three dimensions.
Also, the angle on the bottom of the boattail is not as steep as I thought. I flipped it it's not that far off the 'ideal' 15 degrees.
