35' SF is going to be a day boat in the gulf at best, we aren't talking about a 70 Spencer. Here's a 34 JB that should be a solid boat but quarters are tight as are most short boats;LINK

I've done lots of over-nighters out of Cameron on a 35 Cabo. Longer runs out of Cameron. Also ran it out of Venice, but since deep water closer there, those were always day trips, but we did do some over nighters for tuna. Cabo makes great boats, but OP is going to go into sticker shock on fuel and maintenance, slip fees, etc.
Like someone said earlier, just buying the gear to switch to marlin fishing will cost $5k to $10k.
If it were me, and just getting into Marlin. I'd prob buy a center console for quick trips, and gauge how much everyone likes it. They I'd switch to a sportfisher maybe. But those bigger boats are money pits.
