The waka Te Matau a Maui got back into Napier port about 6am this morning after returning from a two-day voyage of protest against seismic surveying off the East Coast.

It had been "pushed around" a bit entering Hawke Bay and took about three hours to get to port after entering the Bay.

"They had some sunshine and no winds to southerlies and heavy rain - they had it all," Te Matau a Maui Voyaging Trust general manager Wayne MacGillivray said.

"But they handled it without any problems - they said it was a good sail".
