I can't help. The three Sydney surveyors I have used all missed important stuff. I wouldn't publish their names here but you might contact me if you want to know who I wouldn't use.
Apart from the need to have one done for insurance, my view is they are a waste of time and money.

I think a inspection and valuation report is all that should be submitted for insurance reasons.

Your getting the survey done after you brought the boat?

Marinassess are on my list of don'ts, for what it is worth. They missed an unsecured compression post, it literally fell out soon after taking ownership.
