Kei Tāmaki Paenga Hira te waka taua o Te Toki-a-Tāpiri. I tāraia te waka i te tau 1836 mō Te Waaka Tarakau o Ngāti Kahungunu. Nō muri ka takoha atu te waka ki a Te Waaka Perohuka o Rongowhakaata, ā, nā rāua ko te tohunga whakairo ko Raharuhi Rukupō i whakairo te tauihu me te taurapa. Hei whakatau i te rongo taketake, ka kohaina te waka ki a Tāmati Wāka Nene rāua ko Patuone o Ngāpuhi i te tau 1853. I muri mai ka hokona te waka ki a Ngāti Te Ata i Waiuku, ā, i te tau 1863 ka murua e te kāwanatanga. Nā te kāwanatanga i tuku te waka ki raro i te mana tiaki o Pāora Tūhaere o Ngāti Whātua. I te tekau tau 1870 me 1880 ka whiriwhiri ia kia whakahokia te waka taua ki raro i te tāhū o Tāmaki Paenga Hira.
