[StartQuote] I couldn't find any photos of the Maxon on other boats but here's some shots of the 174 Stearman. They sure weren't afraid to make changes! Dick's Elco 80 drawing collection has construction details of the structure around the bow 40mm which would be handy for modelers recreating her. The Thunderbolt on the stern:

The 171, I've noticed that modelers tend to treat the hull, torpedo tubes, houses, etc separately when painting the zebra pattern. It should look like a continuing pattern when viewed from the sides which is what makes it so confusing. You can hardly tell that there are torpedo tubes in this image:
