The packet does not decrypt correctly. Could be an MTU problem.
And are you sure there are no firewalls blocking ESP and UDP 500/4500?
Have you tried with a test setup first, i.e. with a client directly

mostly to do with NAT. NAT does not seem to be involved here but
be advised that you will run into problems when NAT pops up
(which will be sooner or later).
