All my gear 'lives' in Pelican cases, and has done so for several
years. I have not noticed any problems with lubricants or films.
I would say in your circumstances this is definitely the way to go to
protect your gear.

I can keep equipment protected when not in use by using a water
tight box with silica gel. However would those conditions be
harmful to the lubrication used on the internal mechanisms?
What about the film? Will the dry conditions in the box have an
adverse effect on the film even keeping the box in the coolest part
of the boat? Will it become brittle if left sealed up for weeks?
