The modules that go to build a memory reef are built of high specification marine adjusted concrete designed to last a hundred years in the ocean.

Please note that Memory Reefs do not incorporate cremation ashes into its concrete as this would be considered culturally inappropriate in Aotearoa (NZ) and contrary to marine enhancement efforts as we currently understand them.
Holding a boating dedication ceremony above a reef built in memory of a loved one is very appropriate.
Memory Reefs are deployed within a Resource Consented square nautical mile out from Opotiki Harbour entrance. The final resting GPS location of the Memory Reef can be decided by you.
