Default Questions for Cruisers Onboard Computers

Hello! This is related to a discussion over at:
http://www.boatdesign.net/forums/showthread.php?t=19458

We are trying to figure out some requirements for a "Multi Purpose
Onboard Computer System".

QUESTION1: How HOT does it really get INSIDE the cabin of a Cruising
Boat, in the Tropics? What's the typical you've experienced? What's
the worst-case??

QUESTION2: If you use computer-based charts on a laptop or other
onboard computer, how much Harddrive space do your charts take up??
(Let's say for a passage, or your typical cruising area)?? How large a
hard drive do you feel you need to be "comfortable" for charts and
your other uses??

Thanks! Please answer here or at the discussion thread on
BoatDesign.net
