You need longer legs

Bumping an old thread here but our winter is now all but over so things are warming up. My temprary solution to keeping cold water out when paddling on flat was to simply insert plastic tubes that fitted snugly in the scupper holes. This means when getting in there is no water coming in to the cockpit. there is just some splash obviously but at the end of the paddle there is still not more than a cup of water in the footwell so the jewels can stay warm in winter. 
I tried plugging them but the plugs tended to be pushed out, with the tubes there is no pressure build up when the scuppers are below the water level. Also meant no modifications to the boat required and easy enough to remove when not needed.

The bullets are smooth finished as shown in the pictures. They come in two sizes for the older smaller scuppers and newer larger scuppers.

Sorry ....but can I bug you all as I have been following this and even gone back to the original thread.
Is this just if you paddle in cold climates and dont want any water in the well ?
I have a Epic and actually took note last paddle back and couldnt really see to much water in there to worry me ( plus it was gurgling)
Could someone just give a quick over view on a scupper please.
