Steering align thanks

Painting waterline on 16ft '59
Any tips, references or photos of waterline on a lapstrake 16ft? Photos on trailer maybe?
I have the remnants of line on boat, so I can locate ok. Seems a bit tricky to cross over laps. Is the line painted across the edge of the lap?
Thanks,
David

Seeking Airguide stern unit photo
Seeking photo or document on stern/pitot unit of 1959 Airguide speedometer. Need to replace broken 1/8" sense tube and polish up unit.
Would help to know what one looked like closeup. Internet searches find photos of gauges, but not stern.
Thanks,
David
