Ina miharo koe ki te piko maeneene, kore-whakairo o te taupoki o te motuka (te taupoki rānei), ehara i te mea he pepa whakarewa anake tāu e titiro atu ana. Kei te kite koe i te tihi o te hangarau tika, i taea ai e tētahi o ngā taputapu tino nui o te hanga motuka: te mati tā o waho o te taupoki. Ko tēnei taputapu nui, uaua hoki te toa ngaro e whai kawenga ana mō te hanga i te tuakiri, te kounga, me te āhua ā-rangi o te motuka.

He aha te Bonnet O?Te Mate Tāmi o te Uter?
I roto i ngā kupu māmā noa iho,mate tāHe pokepokea motuhake, taumaha hoki te mahi a te mīhini tā. Ka tangohia he wahi papatahi, he mea hanga ki te konganuku papatahi, he maitai, he konumohe rānei te nuinga, ka hurihia hei papa o waho o te taupoki o te waka mā te pēhi taumaha. Ehara tēnei i te tukanga kotahi-taahiraa; he maha ngā wā ka uru atu he raupapa o ngā mate (he "raina mate") e mahi ana i ngā mahi motuhake pēnei i te tuhi, te kuti, te wero, me te whakakoi hei whakatutuki i te wāhanga whakamutunga.

He mea nui te tohu "waho". Koinei te panera e kitea ana i runga i te waka kua oti, e kore ai e taea te whiriwhiri i tōna kounga mata, ōna āhua, me tōna taunga. Ko ngā hapa katoa o te mata ka tukuna tika ki ia taupoki kua hangaia.

Ehara i te Āhua anake: Te Hangarau mō te Tino Pai
He tino tohunga te hoahoa me te hanga i tētahi mati tā mo te potae. Koinei te mea e tino hira ai:

Kounga Mata (Akomanga A): Me whakakanapa te kōhao o te mata kia rite ki te whakaata hei hanga i tētahi mata maeneene, he rite mō te whakaaturanga i runga i te konganuku. He mea nui tēnei mata "Akomanga A" mō te piri o te peita me te ātaahua o te tirohanga, ā, kāore e aro ki ngā ngaru, ngā pakaru, ngā karawarawa rānei.

Āhuahanga Matatini: Ko ngā hoahoa waka hou he rārangi āhua koi, he piko whānui, me ngā āhua uaua mō te āhua me te rere o te hau. Me hanga tika te mata i ēnei āhuatanga me te whakahaere i te āhua tūturu o te konganuku ki te totoro, ki te angiangi, ki te miro rānei.

Te Pūmautanga o te Hanganga me te Haumarutanga: Ehara i te mea ko te āhua anake te kaupapa o te hoahoa o te taupoki. Me tutuki i ngā paerewa haumaru pakari, tae atu ki te tiaki i te pānga o te hunga hikoi. Ka hangaia e te mata he "rohe kuru" kua tatauhia me ngā whakakaha ā-roto e whai wāhi nui ana ki te hoahoa o te panera.

Te Pakari me te Rōrahi: He mea hanga mai i te maitai taputapu kua whakapakeketia, kua hangaia ēnei mate kia tu atu ki ngā miriona huringa i roto i te taiao whakaputa nui. Mā te pakari ka whakarite kia rite tonu te mahi puta noa i te wā whakaputa roa, mai i te motuka tuatahi ki te motuka whakamutunga.

Te Pānga ki te Hanga me te Kounga
He pānga tika, he pānga hohonu hoki te kounga o te mate tā o waho o te potae ki te tukanga hanga katoa me te hua whakamutunga.

Te Whai Hua o te Whakaputa: Mā te mati kua hoahoatia pai, kua tiakina hoki, ka whakaitihia te wā kore mahi mō ngā whakarerekētanga me ngā whakatikatika, ka noho tonu te raina whakaputa me te whakaiti i ngā utu.

Te Taurite me te Whakaoti: Mā te tika o te tauine ka tino uru pai ngā potae katoa ki ngā parirau, te karāhe, me ngā rama o mua. Ko tēnei taurite he tohu matua mō te kounga me te pono o te hanganga o te waka.

Te Arotau Taumaha: Mā te whakahohe i te whakamahinga o ngā maitai kaha-teitei matatau, te konumohe rānei, ka whai wāhi te mate ki te whakamama i ngā waka, ka whai wāhi tika ki te whakapai ake i te whai huatanga me te mahi wahie.

Whakamutunga: Te Pūtake o te Āhua me te Mahi
Ahakoa e huna ana i te papa wheketere, ko te tānga o waho o te potae he mea nui o te hoahoa me te hanga waka. Koinei te hononga nui i waenga i te tuhi matihiko a te kaihoahoa me te wāhanga tinana e kite ana, e pā ana hoki. E whakaatu ana i te hononga o te toi me te hangarau, e huri ana i te rauemi mata hei wāhanga motuhake e tautuhi ana i te āhua o te waka. A te wā e whai ake nei ka pa atu tō ringa ki runga i te mata maeneene, parakore o te taupoki o te waka, kia maumahara ki te tino tika me te pūkenga hangarau o te tānga i taea ai.
