Coat of arms (crest) of the Inshore Patrol Ship HMNZS Taupo (P3570), RNZN

Motto: Kia u = standfast

Origin/meaning

Designed by personnel in the WWII Loch Class Frigate, the first to bear the name, the badge features a Māori canoe, with wavy lines representing the sea. The canoe is double-hulled, the type of construction which brought the Arawa people to Aotearoa New Zealand, eventually to settle in the area including Lake Taupō.
