Join us as we welcome Heritage New Zealand Pouhere Taonga archaeologist Isaac Mcivor along with archaeologist researcher Kurt Bennett, who will be giving a talk about maritime archaeology in New Zealand and the challenges that heritage agencies face with climate change.

The rediscovery, recording and recovery in 2018 of the New Zealand 1863 built schooner, Daring, will be used as an exciting case study of these issues. They will be joined by Larry Paul, Member of the Daring Rescue group and Skipper of the Classic Yacht Waitangi, to discuss the Daring’s future.

Light Nibbles and EFTPOS Bar available.

Bookings essential. Please call (09) 373 0800 or email info@maritimemuseum.co.nz to reserve your place.
