paipa whakamahana
Ko te mahi matua o te paipa wai hau mahana ko te rere o te wai whakamatao o te mīhini ki roto i te tāke wai hau mahana, koinei te pūtake whakamahana o te pūnaha whakamahana hauhautanga.
Ki te āraia te paipa whakamahana, ka kore e mahi te pūnaha whakamahana hauhautanga o te motuka.
E ai ki te momo pūtake wera, e rua ngā momo matua o te pūnaha whakamahana waka: ko tētahi e whakamahi ana i te wai whakamatao miihini hei pūtake wera (e whakamahia ana e te nuinga o ngā waka i tēnei wā), ā, ko tētahi e whakamahi ana i te wahie hei pūtake wera (e whakamahia ana e ētahi waka reo-rahi me ngā waka papai). Ina teitei te pāmahana o te wai whakamatao miihini, ka rere te wai whakamatao mā roto i te whakawhiti wera i roto i te pūnaha whakamahana (e mōhiotia whānuitia ana ko te tāke whakamahana iti), ka whakawhiti wera i waenga i te hau e tukuna ana e te pupuhi me te wai whakamatao miihini, ā, ka whakamahanahia te hau e te pupuhi. Tukuna ki roto i te waka mā roto i ia putanga hau.
Ki te pakaru te pūwhakamahana o te waka, ka pāngia te pāmahana o te mīhini?
Ki te honoa ki te paipa whakamahana, kāore e pā ki a ia. Ki te āraia tika, ka pā ki te tohanga o te wai. Ki te turuturu, ka wera te miihini.
