Your captain is a child of the Fenua, born and raised in Tahiti. From a very young age, he developed a special bond with the ocean; by the age of 6, Vehiatua was already fishing from the reef. It comes as no surprise that a few years later, he would develop his greatest passion for big game fishing, after many years of practicing spearfishing. Sailing, foiling, surfing, va’a (Tahitian canoe), va’a ta’ie (Polynesian sailing canoe) ... Water sports hold no secrets for him. His professional career as a surfer is a perfect example of this. His current goal is to take you on his adventures aboard the Rangiariki-MH, sharing his passions and knowledge of the sea: its treasures, its dangers, and its ecosystem. Mauruuru roa, Maeva.
