I also ran the intake tube thru a scupper hole, but I placed the tsunami pump as close to the scupper hole as it would go and only used enough tubing to extend past the bottom of the kayak and reach the water. At this end of the tubing I put a 90* elbow inside the tubing, facing forward. The forward movement of the kayak forces the water high enough in the tubing to reach the pump to start moving the water.
I used a piece of 90* black pvc elbow I found at Home depot that fit snugly inside the tubing. And I cut the Cut the elbow off, after it makes the bend. Cost about a dollar. As somebody said, Hobie makes an inlet specifically for that, but I'm cheap!
