The mini split manufacturers will not warranty the condenser if installed even near salt water. Also consider that all but the smallest mini split units need 240 volt service. I am seeing more of them, particularly on houseboats.
In your opinion. Respectfully, how does your opnion stated here help advance the help the OP is seeking?Living on the hook for two years in a land where our summers hit 40c/104f and not once have we wanted a/c.
Good ventilation and large overhangs are the answer.

In your opinion.
No, it is not a fact. It is your opinion that good ventilation IS the answer. For other folks, perhaps most folks, your environment would not be sufficient. Therefore, opinion, not fact.Not opinion, it is fact.
Evidence of this fact is 100f summers and no a/c due to good ventilation and large overhangs.
Further support of this fact is those with poor ventilation and small or no overhangs needing A/c.
And if the OP does not have good ventilation and an overhang what is your recommendation? Sell the boat I suppose.Not opinion, it is fact.

How it helps the op is perhaps they need to address ventilation and shading first, it will certainly help even if AC is decided on at a later stage.
Fabric shade and opening windows/hatches, heard of them?And if the OP does not have good ventilation and an overhang what is your recommendation? Sell the boat I suppose.
Simi 60, give it up. Yes, I have. If you choose no A/C, good for you. Others choose differently. Denigrating their choice is unbecoming. I ask you again, how do your observations help the OP and this forum?Fabric shade and opening windows, heard of them?
On the days where it was 40c/outside here we had 28c and coolish breeze inside.

No thank you. I choose not to further engage with you.Denigrating? What, like you are doing to me?
And please give an example where I did it to the op?
Right up there with the pros and cons of orange juice with breakfast!Lol after anchors and single vs twins looks like here is another delicate subject matter

Hilarious
Refuses to back up his comment and still engages with me while claiming he's not.
Thanks for the lulz
The OP wants to know about air conditioning. Its not a big help telling him that he doesn’t need it. You may be content in well ventilated 104 degree shade, but most of us aren’t. That’s not my idea of comfort. AC is one of the all-time great inventions and, next to a water maker, might be one of the most important upgrades in warm weather boating.
