Scupper plugs
Thinking about plugging all the cock pit scuppers. I have a constant 1-2" of h2o in the cockpit most the time, unless I am paddling my azz off. So I was thinking about plugging them up, obviously with something I can remove if need be.
So my question is, do others plug them up? I know I could just lose some of this winter layer hanging off my gut, but that ain't gonna happen...
I was thinking about cutting the plugs out of a pool noodle using a piece of copper tubbing to cut it to size...
I hear you. I was marginal weight for my T140 when I bought it last year. I've since added another 15# . My scuppers are plugged with foam golf balls that I thinned out on a belt sander. They work OK but are kind of stiff/ non-resiliant so still need to be FORCED in. Looking for a better solution myself.
I keep all 6 holes plugged on my t-140. Kayak fishing stuff has scupper plugs with cords attached for 6 bucks a pair. When you have to you just pop em out quick and thier tied off so you don't loose em.
