Attached to cover the tino vaka is a carved puke (combined prow and stern cover component) which is lashed securely with fibre along the length of the tino vaka including at each terminal end. Decorative incised lines are applied to the surface of the wooden puke, which has a raised serrated ridgeline along its centre. Along each side at the join between the tino vaka and the puke, a line of white fua pule (cowrie shells) is attached for decorative purposes. Two wooden tau toko (crossbooms) extend out from the tino vaka with a supporting rod connecting them. Two tutuki (wooden stakes) are tied to one of the tau toko, and four tutuki are tied to the other. The hama (outrigger) for this model vaka ama is missing. A model fohe is associated with this vaka ama.
