Te Waka!


Beach Week 2019 rolls on. Tāwhirimātea has spared us and we've enjoyed sunny weather and calm conditions. Good enough to construct and float a waka hourua inspired driftwood raft!


As you can see below, there is even a hoe (say haw-eh) or rudder. 


At present, she still requires plenty of man-power. 


And a support crew, close at hand. 


As we played around on our waka this afternoon - our inspiration sailed right on past. We saw the three waka hourua of Tuia 250; Haunui, Ngahiraka Mai Tawhiti and Fa'afaite leaving the harbour. Haere rā koutou!
