Do you have any way to draw that design suggestion?
Too many. I tried a 3D program and got hung up on making the boat.

I tried Photochopping your posted picture, but the hitch is cut off it the best view and it looked like cr@p.

I could draw a sketch and scan it, or just do a cross-section of the floor in Photoshop; but I'm not sure it's worth it.

How far is it from the winch post to the end of the trailer frame, and what is the length of the boat?

Turn the boat upside down and put it's bow *on* the winch post. Level it up in back and take a pic. Given that, I'd add in a deck that mimics the curve of the gunwales, and fill in a railing or wall in between.

Can you imagine that?

Reversing the boat is more aerodynamic, but you lose any opportunity for a tailgate.
