Scuppers

I have the type with the little ping pong ball in them they don’t seal off water worth a darn and allows the well to take water which in turn goes under a hatch to the bilge pump. Constant cycling water. I think it cannot be stock to have a hatch in a water well anyway but there it is bad seal and all. Question I have for y’all is do any of you have scuppers that work keeping water out of the well
 
Yes they let water out of the well while underway and then supposed to stop water while sitting still.

That one looks really low to me...and given all the turbulence in that area while moving, I'd be surprised if they worked real good.

If you can't (don't want to) relocate the exits, I'd focus on the hatch seal...to keep the water out of the bilge.

Yeah those scuppers are factory height and yes I am changing the hatch so it has a better seal That hatch, to me, appears to have been added post factory. Somebody wanted an easier access to the bilge maybe. I was just hoping scuppers that everyone has on their boat were of different degrees of quality. Thanks for the input.
