blocked the "holes" up with a dense type of foam and it has actually made a fair bit of difference,in the samba article it was mentioned to use "noodles" as used for swimming,may have a go at using something a bit better than foam rammed into the holes

The problem is though, how much of that water is now going to be trapped in there, rotting out the box sections from the insides?
