Unless you have AC in the pilot house you will roast in the summer here. The shade is nice but you can get that from a Ttop on CC. It's really noticeable if you have to swim a bit and get warmed up and go inside with little to no circulation. Tried fans of all kinds, winds open etc... but it sucks. I never had any choice because we were on commercial boats and work year round so we had to have protection from cold and spray in the winter. In my area the runs are similar to the gulf coast and I'd buy a CC with either a forward cabin or a head in the console and twin OBs in that size range.
