Okay... so my only hesitation would be
That you say you don't have much experience and you will be sailing it by yourself.
I have a Catalina 36 MKII, and I like it a lot, but it can be a bear to handle by myself. Mine may not be set up the best for singlehanding, but I do have an autopilot and lines run back to the cockpit, etc.
What is really difficult is when the wind picks up. At 10 knots of wind, everything is pretty easy. Things happen fairly slowly... I can gybe or tack by myself with no real crisis. But by myself at 15-20 knots of wind, which can happen often, I am suddenly near the limits of my physical ability. The sails become a lot more powerful, they respond to gybes and tacks more quickly and forcefully, they take longer and a lot more muscle power to winch in, etc.
Your plan will be a lot of fun. All I'm saying is be sure it is safe, too, by learning how to sail a bigger boat carefully. Take a class or have someone else sail with you for a while, and build up to that experience level.
Keep us posted on how it goes.
