Apparently there are various tricks to clean up that mess. Toilet bowl cleaner is the choice of many, and you probably have some handy at home, you can try a small area and see how that goes.
From a chemistry standpoint there are two trains of thought: 1. Bleach 2. Acid (oxalic, hydrochloric, sulfuric)
There is a great cleaner I have used in the bilge and splash well of my dirty 13' that does the trick in seconds. Its called Marykate's On and Off Hull and Bottom Cleaner. Works really well.
The caveat is you have to protect all metal (mainly the trailer) because the acid in this stuff will eat through the metal. It also stinks so I recommend using it outside in a well ventilated area and protecting yourself with gloves, respirator, long sleeves/pants etc to make sure this stuff doesnt get on your skin/lungs/eyes etc. Probably overkill but better safe than sorry. I think this stuff retails for like $18 on amazon.
Good luck!
