WakaKa haria e mātou te hī ika waka kayak ki tētahi taumata hou o te pumau, te whakamarie me te ngāwari ki te whakamahi i te Lure hou o te tau 2014. Ko te Lure 10 te teina iti ake, he iti ake te kikī o te Lure 11.5, ā, he tino pai mō ngā haerenga poto i runga i ngā awa me ngā roto, me te kore e hiahiatia he āhuatanga.
He maha ngā āhuatanga ahurei o ngā waka hoe, pērā i te raupapa waka hoe Allure, tae atu ki ngā nohoanga taumaha whānui maha ka taea te tango, ngā wira patented i runga i te keel, me te pūnaha ara kotahi a Feelfree. He maha ngā teitei o te nohoanga taumaha, ka taea te whakarerekē mā te whakamahi i te mahi uara kotahi o te rīpene, ā, ka taea te tango. Ko te mea e tino wehewehe ana i te nohoanga taumaha ko te kaha ki te horoi i te papa o te waka hoe ina hiahiatia he taunga tāpiri me te tūranga hoe pai ake mō ngā tawhiti roa.
Mā te mōunu 36 inihi tino pumau me te waka whānui i te tūnga noho, tū rānei, me te papa tūturu kua whakakīia, ka taea e koe te whiriwhiri mēnā ka hoe koe, ka maka rānei ki te hī ika i ngā wai o uta, i ngā moana whānui rānei – kāore tēnei waka e wehi i te wai.
