A violent incident occured in Taravai Gambier French Polynésia 17 May 2021.
(Philippe) Hervé Tuihani and his wife were well known as friends of cruisers in Gambier. They organise BBQ, pétanque/volleyball and sell vegetable from their home. Jean Charles Schneider and Hervé disagreed about COVID and visitors (sailors ) to the island. Hervé threatened to beat up Jean Charles if he approach Taravaï . But Jean Charles returned to Taravaï 6 months later on 17/5/2021 with his partner and two friends to help an other inhabitant in a other achorage. Hervé Tuihani arrived on a surf board and uninvited boarded the sailing boat whilst underway. Hervé directly approached Jean Charles . Without provocation Hervé violently attacked Jean Charles. During the sustained attack the partner of Jean Charles intervered to calm the situation and Hervé left. Jean Charles immediatly returned to Rikitea for medical assistance and support. We saw Jean Charles one hour after the attack with his face completely deformed and in shock. Jean Charles sought medical assessment and diagnosed with multiple fractures to his face and missing teeth. His treatment required two operations in Tahiti and he has not fully recovered. The attack was investigated by the Police. Hervé was charged and found guilty of the violent assalt.
