Nobody has responded yet all of your original question "...would I be happier in the roominess of a coastal cruiser or would it be unsafe to cross the gulf in a 30 year old coastal cruiser such as an O Day, Hunter, Irwin, ect... "

The original question is a bit moot at this point, as it is over SIX YEARS OLD, and if the OP hasn't figured it out by now, they're never gonna. They've probably bought a boat, and gone to the Caribbean and are now sitting anchored out someplace drinking fruity drinks with a little umbrella in the cockpit.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
