( Not like the airflow would stay attached at that angle anyways, but just thinking possible potential here.)

Damn you Dr. Wunibald Kamm!!!
Your truncated airfoil (Foil E) for having very similar drag coefficients as our 'purist optimum' (Foils A, B, C) boattails.

Trek Madone (Kammtail Virtual Foil) profiles know their aerodynamics.

That all sounds less neat than the Sealander, where the trailer IS the boat.
