The Cisco should be instructed to forward all the proto 41 packets to
the private host. OR what sometimes with NAT's also work is to start
the communication on the private host side. As then the NAT box will
detect the flow, record it in it's tables and the traffic will enter
and leave the network correctly, until the NAT entry times out.
So it's better to point the proto 41 forwarding at the correct host.

Another option might be to upgrade the Cisco so that it can do
the IPv6. And as a last resort you could employ a tinc/vtund tunnel
which simply uses tcp or udp and router your IPv6 over that.

If I where you I'd change that to 2000::/3 as there is more
to then just 1 bit extra of the 6bone, you are not routing to
the RIR space (2001::/16) now which contains quite a lot of hosts
and thus content.
