Luggage on the roof?!

Anyone any idea about how much weight the front "luggage area" of a Westy pop top can hold? Was thinking of strapping my awning there - about 18kgs - is this feasible/sensible? Thanks.

Sounds OK, I have had about that on mine before with no dramas.

Our massive awning strapped up there as we speak, should be fine.

Me and my seven year old son stood in ours at Waddington air show to get a good view.
