Seriously, rip up that blacktop, excavate down about 5' and make it a gentle downslope. Plenty of room to get the boat in that way, and you'd be able to maintain a continuous roofline.

And........... have a garage withh flooding and erosion problems.

Sure, if you just half-ass it and don't account for drainage. There are plenty of houses in this general area that have driveways with significant slopes that do not flood or cause erosion problems. It can very easily be handled, but you would want a proper site survey and excavation plan.
