That's what I did when I had SURPRISE's waterline adjusted to suit what had
become her normal trim.

There are articles published by WoodenBoat magazine about how to recapture
waterlines... I'm going to be looking for them myself as I set about
recapturing Touch Wood's waterline.  Being a wooden boat, her waterline was
once scribed into her planking... But while she was out of my hands over
enthusiastic sanding has obliterated it...  Argh.
