Pēhea te kai e kai nei koe kia puāwai mai i mua i te tae ki tō tinana? Nā, ko tēnā tino hiranga noaiho, nā te mea kaore he tangata e kai ana i te kai kūkū. SHARMINI PERIES: Ko tēhea mea ka taea tēnei? Hei konei, mā he mea e kīia nei ko te “waikōwhiti.” Ko te waikōwhiti he rangahau e mahi ana ki te tiaki i tētahi wāhanga kai, pērā i ngā karaka, ngā hua whenua, ngā wai-mīti me ngā para, hei waipiro. Ki te tiaki i ēnei kai i waenganui i ngā wāhi waipiro, ka kore ngā rerekētanga ki te puta mai, nā tēnā ka noho haumaru tātou, kaua rawa i ngā mate.
Kāore te kai i whakaritea hei tūhono o te waipori, e āhei ana tēnei i whakatūhia me te waka ma whero e pātata ana ki te hōroki. Nō reira ngā waka, nō Hudson anō rātau, ka whakatupuhaia he wāhi hei whakamahinga i te waipori iti i roto. I tēnā wā, ka noho te waipori i roto i te waka i waenganui i te 30 me te 40 matū Fārenhīti. Ko te hangekō i tautoko i te whakapūmau i ngā taonga i te haerenga mai i te marae A ki te marae B.
He nui te whiwhinga o te waka hāngai āhuarangi tēnei mō ētahi atu take. E awhina ana ia i ngā pakihi, e hia tonu ana ngā taiwhenua kai me ngā matatini whare rawa, ki te hīkoi kai me ngā taonga māmā i roto i te haerenga noa. Nā reira, i te wa e haere ana tēnei waka, kaore ngā tāngata e hiahia ana kia riro te kai hei kai kua kino, he mea nui hoki kia kaua e whakaputu mai ngā mamae ki te kai. He nui tēnei i runga i ngā mahi pērā i ngā whakautu mate. He mea tino whanaunga ngā whakautu mate, he momo rongoā e hia ana kia maroke tonu hei whai i ōna huarahi pai, nā reira e hīkoi ana i roto i ēnei waka hāngai āhuarangi.
Kei roto i ngā waka hāngai āhuarangi o Hudson, he hāngai whiwhi kaimahi, ā, e mīharo ana ki te whakamahi. He mea hanga tēnei i ngā whakauru wehewehe kāwhepa e hāngai ana i te wehenga o te kai ranei, me ngā moni whakawhiti ranei e hīkoi ana. He kai ētahi, pērā i te mea nei, ka whiwhi kaha rawa i te maroke i runga i ētahi atu. Ka taea hoki e te waka nei te whakatūpato i te pari hau e hanga mai ana, e āhei ana ki te whakapakari, me te mahi pai. Kia pai te āhua o ngā mea katoa kei roto i te waka, ka tiakina hoki kia pai me te haumaru.
Ki te kawe āhuahanga hou me ngā hūpara ki te marae kai, ki te kawe i ngā rauemi matua moe hiko ki te whare rawa, ko te waka pūhāna a Hudson he whakaaetanga pai hei whakamahi i te whakamātau i te reka me te tiaki i ngā mea. Ko ngā toto o ngā waka nei i hangaia kia noho ai te huarere i roto, kia noho reka tonu i roto, ā, ahakoa iti ai te huarere i waho. Ki te tatakiha nei, ka tiakina ake ngā kai me ngā rautaki i te waewae tika o te haerenga katoa.
He pai te waka pūhāna a Hudson mō te kawe i ngā kai e taea nei te hohepa. He rite nui anō hoki ngā waka nei, kia kitea e ngā pakihi o ngā momo katoa he waka hei whakarite i ō rātou hiahia. Ka taea e tētahi waka nui te wheako i te nui o ngā kai mai i ētahi kāwanatanga, engari e kore ētahi atu i te hiahia ki tērā mea nui, nā te mea e tino iti ana ō rātou nui.
Ko te waka hāmua waipiro o Hudson he pai mea mō te whakatuku kai, me ngā mea hinengaro rānei, nō reira ā he mea hoki ka hiahiatia e te waipiro. Ka taea e koe aetahi wā e haere ana i te haumaru, mōhiohia ai ko ngā mea e pūmau ana i runga i te hunga whakangungu mīharo me ngā kauwhata iti. Nā tēnā ka mahi ngā āhuatanga ātaahua ki roto i te waka hei tiaki i ngā mea kia tae atu ki ngā wāhi e hiahiatia ana, i te ū tonu i te wā e tīmata ana te haerenga.
