Statue of Wairaka at entrance to Whakatane Harbor
movin2newzealand 
That looks very much like the statue of Wairaka at the mouth of the Whakatane River, and entrance to Whakatane Harbour. Also, the museum is the Auckland War Memorial Museum, being a memorial to fallen soldiers.
Of course, you’re right, sorry—errors corrected. Thanks for keeping me honest!
Who is Waitaka…. Sounds like a good tale. ….and did you try any of that Tautapere sausage ??
“Unveiled at the Whakatāne Heads in 1965 as a memorial to the wife of Sir William Sullivan. This bronze statue atop Turuturu Rock lies at the mouth of the Whakatāne River and commemorates the bravery of Wairaka and the daughter of Toroa, captain-navigator of the Mataatua waka.
When the Mataatua waka first arrived at Whakatāne after making a perilous voyage from Ngāti Awa’s ancestral homeland of Hawaiki 600 years ago, the men left the women alone in the canoe while they went ashore. When the canoe started to drift back to sea, Wairaka (defying the tapu that forbade women to handle a canoe) seized the paddle and brought the waka back to shore crying, ‘Kia Whakatane au i ahau’ – I will act the part of a man.’ This cry is the origin of the town’s name.”
