The heat never bothers me down there, but having the AC running and avoiding the 2am "close the hatches because it's raining" drill had us using it every night. Also the aft cabins have poor ventilation unless you keep the doors open which of course means a certain amount of loss of privacy.
We had an issue with one of the compressors cutting out due to a plugged water intake line. The fix is easy once we talked to the mechanic over the phone about location of the compressor and procedure for flushing. You might want to have them identify this for you before departure.
Fair winds! I'm a bit jealous because we were thinking about a 46.3 charter in late June but it doesn't look like that will come together this year.
