Aloha folks, Back again with some new photos.
Some more killer boards.

And check the tiki and malolo.

Then I met Male(pronounced Mal-Lay not mail)

He is the son and apprentice of the master carver Sitiveni "Steven" Fe'Ao Fehoko. Pictured in the red shirt working on the "Tu" here.

Male insisted I step over the rope dividing the carver from the gawkers and feel the muscles of the whale. Incredible is all I can say the detail that has gone into it.




Then over to the waka area but I could not find the TekoTeko. In it's place was this prow?

I don't know much about it.


then I saw this canoe waiting for the outrigger to be attached.

Oh an there's the Teko soaking up the rays.




I'll try and get some more pics Friday.

Aloha
E
