That is enough boat to go there... if the weather permits. You might want to look at the 3 day swell map at

or the Catalina Swell map at

There is an essay about small boating to the islands that might help a little at

You could also dive Palos Verdes for a shorter trip.
I think that the best place to go for diving would be around Isthmus. There is a fill station there as well.
Enjoy the diving, seahunt
