Island
Description
Island south of Tutukaka Harbour, east of Ngunguru.; The literal meaning for the name is "raho": testicle, "maunu": bait. The story is that a war party was travelling north by canoe, and stopped off at this island to do some fishing and replenish their dwindling food supplies. Finding they had no bait, they cut the testicles off some male slaves they had with them, used these and took a great haul. Correction to spelling of name already shown on maps
