Any idea where one might find such a trailer? Although I'm fairly certain it must have been a custom built one-off.

its hard to see but the boat is on a deck, the boat deck travels inside a "c-channel" of the vertical frame.

like this -




they make a lighter (combined) weight that does the layback, like you were talking about.
