I understand you wish to save money on the survey but the surveyor you mentioned that specializes in hull machinery and cargo might be a bad choice. You want someone who specializes in fiberglass boats not container ships. This is not a place to be too cheap. All older boats have problems, every one and you want the surveyor to find them.This is where experience counts. The problems the surveyor finds are things to allow for in your final buying price.
