"Do you spend July, August and September in FL? Methinks not."
God Forbid!!! WHO would want to?
When cruising I did spend a summer in the Carib , traveling the Windward Island.
With a suitable deck awning the vessel temperature is very close to the actual water temperature , not a big deal .
Behind the higher islands a hatch scoop is a help as the trades are much diminished, and the boat will frequently be on two anchors to be able to point into the swell, not the breeze.
No big deal for retirement cruising.
