It is all what you are used to, I guess. A Tornado sailor friend of ours from England used to race in Miami in T-shirt and shorts when all the other Tornado sailors were wearing wetsuits or drysuits. We thought he was crazy.

And, Rolf, I am sorry I ever brought up the Dragon, monohull, which is still causing confusion, because now you have misspelled Dragon as Dragoon, which is the catamaran. I'm just very partial to the Dragon (monohull) because I spent a lot of time on one as a teenager on Lake Erie.

Obviously, he does not want a Dragon (monohull). I don't think he could carry that on top of his car.

It is good information from you that the area around the archipelago is shallow. Sometimes it takes forever on these threads to piece together all the relevant information so others can give a sailor halfway intelligent advice.
