Hey Randy, so this is a great question but like basically all roof top cargo boxes the Benton Shellraiser #B44FR isn't considered waterproof as that would mean it would have to keep all water out if it was submerged. It's going to do a great…

Maximize Your Adventure with Extra Large, High Profile Roof Boxes
For those who need to pack it all, extra large capacity roof boxes with a high profile are the perfect solution. Ideal for family vacations, ski trips, or cross-country adventures, these boxes offer ample space and easy access. Their high profile design ensures you can fit bulky items like skis, snowboards, or camping gear with ease.
A high profile roof box can slightly impact vehicle handling, especially in windy conditions. However, many designs are streamlined to minimize wind resistance and noise. It's important to ensure the box is securely mounted and evenly loaded to maintain stability and safety on the road.
An extra large capacity roof box can accommodate a variety of items, from multiple suitcases and duffel bags to skis, snowboards, and camping gear. It's perfect for families or groups needing to maximize space for long trips, allowing more room inside the vehicle for passengers.
Installation is generally straightforward, with most boxes designed for easy mounting on standard crossbars. Many users find it takes just minutes to secure the box, thanks to intuitive locking mechanisms and adjustable fittings that ensure a snug fit on various vehicles.
A high profile roof box adds significant height to your vehicle, which may affect garage clearance. It's crucial to measure your vehicle's total height with the box installed to ensure it fits in your garage or parking structures. Some users have noted the need to be cautious in low-clearance areas.
A roof box can slightly reduce fuel efficiency due to added weight and wind resistance. However, many high profile designs are aerodynamic to minimize this effect. Users have reported a minor decrease in miles per gallon, but the trade-off is often worth the extra storage capacity.
