We have a new collection at the Museum
The Kumara Box has been sold and the Suckling Searle Marine Collection has been re-sited at Kaipara Heritage Machinery Museum - in our new Keith Hansen Gallery.
It represents a lifetime of Marine collecting along the wild West Coast.
Barry Searle, QSM, is highly regarded in academic circles for his extensive knowledge and he has kaumatua kaitiaki status among the Kaipara Maori whenua.
Ernie's Kumara Box was a huge drawcard for visitors from near and far and will be missed, but the Searle and Suckling families remain connected to our display. Barry Searle is available for tour groups and school visits. The collection included everything from ship wrecks, shells, fish and seabirds to the local geography, and even a mounted skeleton of a sea leopard, the only one in the world!!
