Should I consider a ketch as a first boat?

[flightlead404]

I'm looking for my first boat, or first one I couldn't pick up and put on the roof of my car anyway.

Up to now I've been avoiding ketches, focusing on sloops. I've looked at a couple of cutters but they didn't fit the bill.

I've come across a mid-eighties Pearson 365 ketch that meets all my criteria except its a ketch.

This is for FL keys gunkholing, probably coming up north in the summer, possible Bahamas in 2022.
