Described as one of the most significant archaeological discoveries ever made in Aotearoa and the wider Pacific, the waka remains buried in coastal dunes on Rēkohu, the Chatham Islands.

The fate of the waka believed to be Rangihoua - a double-hulled ocean-going waka thought to be part of an early migration from Hawaiki centuries ago - is now in the hands of Cabinet.

"Cabinet faces ‘no-brainer’ decision on ancient migration waka" Ngāti Mutunga o Wharekauri net assets 39 million. They can bloody well pay for it themselves.
Regarding the waka firewood found in the dunes, just think what the money wasted on such like could do for our economic wellbeing. If Maori want the firewood, let them dig it up with their funds grifted from the rest of us via Treaty fraud. I and probably many others say enough of this nonsense. Get rid of the Land Court and the Waitangi Tribunal.
Another chunk of Maori craft abandoned , left to rot, and forgotten about for generations.
Now they expect us nasty colonists to restore and revere it forever.
Let it rot
Clearly nobody has been concerned about it for 550 years.
