A cone only works on a torpedo.

Find the cross section at the rear axle line, and then reduce it. The amount depends on the length of the boat tail.

Then lay flexible slats faired off the original surface to find the curvature.

The Difference Between Fared And Faired? - englishforums.com
Faired: Past tense for fair, become fine, fairing off some. The weather is fairing off, becoming better or fine. Fairing off a material to become smoother, creating less drag. Fared: Performing in a specific situation over a time period. Coming along, survive. A person may or may not fare very well in a particular situation.
