Umm... these are very, very different boats. Either of them is capable of making a trip to the Bahamas, given a properly prepared crew and a good weather window. The Catalina will give you a lot more space, both for stowage and for living. It is also a lot newer. It will also perform better in light air.
I'd highly recommend you read the Boat Inspection Trip Tips thread I started, as it will help you figure out if either of these two boats is really worth going forward on. Many clean looking boats aren't... and have been cleaned up for the purposes of selling them.

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.
