Rastaman, I'd bet the plywood is likely to absorb any water that gets in. As ticki2 said, any hole in the cab would allow water to be driven in as you sped along. My notion for drains has them at the very bottom of the camper, inside the truck bed where wind-driven water is not an issue. But I have no wood to absorb water, just aluminum tubing and closed cell foam.
Airstream had drains at the bottom of their trailers, even had a special fitting. I don't know if they still do this.
I'd attempt to waterproof any plywood I could get to and seal the seams and fasteners as completely as possible and hope for the best...
