I wouldn't recommend setting a Kontiki in any of the West Coast harbours.

Current in the Hoki is particularly strong due to it being so narrow and going a long way inland.
 
I have heard of 2 different people attempting to use Kontikis in the Manukau and both were lost to the current.
 
hope this helps but I would stick to the coasts
