Hey Kevin,
Swing-away hitch adapters can't be used to tow and aren't designed to be used with other hitch adapters so you wouldn't be able to tow your boat and haul a bike rack at the same time. Swing-away adapters will also reduce the overall capacity of your trailer hitch by 50% as well so it would likely make you overloaded hauling e-bikes.
If your goal is to be able to haul your bikes and trailer together then yo-u can used a stacked receiver like Gen-Y's # 325-GH-315. This would give you multiple receivers to put both your bike rack and a ball mount for your trailer with enough clearance between the two so that you can still couple/uncouple the trailer.
