You might benefit from one of David Pascoe's books:
Power Boat Books by David Pascoe, Marine Surveyor
Like anyone else who expresses strong opinons (particularly in the marine world), Pascoe has some detractors. But if you get "Surveying Fiberglass Power Boats" and a moisture meter (and spend some time learning how to interpret its readings) you will be in a more knowledgeable position.

Also, while it's not about surveying per se, Bill Bishop's blog is good (and he's a very entertaining writer!):
The Marine Installer's Rant
