Hugh, go for it. My son ,now 36 got his license 6 years ago, We have had a T-337B 1967 in the family since new. My dad and I flew it. My son got his license at about 65 hours. Got checked out, after the warrior, in 172, then 182, then bonanza. At 100 hrs I bought him a normal aspitarated 337. My mechanic and him flew to Teaxas to pick it up, he jumped in and flew it home, in left seat, with my mechanic, who was qualified in the skymaster. First few landings a little rough, but by the time he got home he was doing well. He said allot easier to fly than the bonaza. Insurance required 25 hours of dual and a centerline rating. He got that and now has 500 hours, most in skymasters. We sold the plane after 50-75 hours and he now flys the original skymaster and I bought a P-337. we fly together allot. A Skymaster is as easy to fly as a 210, and safer.
