Maintenance and operating costs will be an exponential change from a bay boat. From experience you should factor 10% - 20% of the purchase price for annual cost of ownership.

Hire someone to survey the hull and diesels separately.

If you're set on making the purchase, I would consider an Albamarle, and Henriques in addition to the Cabo. Viking also makes a nice Express, but it's a different price point.

Not sure where you're located, but I would consider keeping the boat in GI at Hurricane Hole. It's the nicest marina in Louisiana with great amenities for the family. Day trips offshore are more cost effective from GI as well.
