Since recieving Hinemoana ll in May 2025 incredible opportunities have cultivated for our people of Ngātiwai, reconnecting our iwi to our mātauranga māori and unifying our coastline connections.

The Marae Moana project designing something that would be beneficial and long lasting ensuring our people have avenues to progress and excel in traditional practices that reconnect us to our cultural identity.

Under the guidance of Ngaa Mata a Karewa and Te Kura Waka Navigators in Tainui alongside a mixed cohort, Marae Moana begun its first intake of traditional navigators. We now have a strong cohort of 30 passionate and willing Ngātiwai ākonga who are learning the foundations of traditional navigation. This is Te Au Here Toroa.

On the 4th of September Te Au Here Toroa began a 4 week wānanga where the crew mapped out a path to sail Hinemoana ll to Whangārei for some necessary TLC and survey checks.

The Te Au Here Toroa crew worked tirelessly to get everything done within a strict timeframe, with Nicholas Palmer teaching the crew foundational land skills and making sure everyone was kept safe throughout the mahi. We thank them for all their time and aroha this past month.

Hinemoana ll has returned back to our moana looking incredible, sailed back to Tutukaka Marina by crew members and three captains, Russel of Hōkūle’a, Zebidiah of Paikea, and Manihera Forbes from Ngaa Mata a Karewa who we are so grateful to have walked alongside in this navigation space since the beginning.
