2006 Carver 36 MY purchase pending


My wife and I are in the initial purchase stages of a 2006 Carver 36 MY aft cabin in Seattle area.
There is only a 217hrs on the twin gas volvo 5.7Gxi engines. The boat has been moored in fresh water in lake union.
What are the most likely items to be concerned and critical on?
I've read the drip pans of the ac units have draining issues?
The items i initially noticed are the starboard side swim platform is extremely close to the water line. The port engine starboard side exhaust manifold has rust stain from riser gasket area.
Only one engine bay light is working.

We plan to have a full survey preformed including haul out and inspection. We would appreciate recommendations for local surveyor? Haul out yard?

There is no bow thruster, we plan on having one installed after purchase and would appreciate feedback and recommendations to brand/size/yard to perform work in lake union area.

We are considering moorage at Elliott bay marina, any additional issues we should be aware of doing this?

We appreciated the bayliner forum feedback of our previous boat, 2003 Bayliner 245 5.7bravo3, which we'll be selling it this purchase goes thru.
