All interesting points. I cruised test rode a 2008 4400 SY in moderate swells built in vacuum (the first model they build this way) back in 2008...
I went in Capri in 2008 and 2015 (see profile picture). The last was with a 58 footer end of July. We paid 450 EUROS a night and spent about 50...
Going to a Bavaria is a step back from the Sessa in my opinion. Also if you want to keep a boat a lot in the water stern drive are not so good....
