Surveyors

Has anyone gone to the expense of having their new boat surveyed, either during production or shortly after? If not, why not? If so, what was the results? Thanks.

Dinghy outboard

Any comments the pros/cons of a 2 stroke vs 4 stroke engine when buying new? My concerns is that as we have traveled in the Bahamas and Caribbean you seldom see 4 stroke engines.
