A/C or Heating the back deck on Trawlers

As I preparing to move on to an older Hatteras/Jefferson/Main ship I’m wondering how well you can cool or heat the back deck of these Trawlers? These Trawlers have back decks that are somewhat enclosed but I don’t see any marine/RV A/C units on the roof for instance. I’ve only seen one with a portable roll around unit venting to the outside. Heating I’m guess could be done with a ceramic heater or two I’m not trying to condition this area in a Florida summer, but maybe the Fall and Spring, and heating in South Carolina in the winter.
So the question is….Have you tried this and is it reasonable to consider climatizing the back decks in moderate conditions?
