I'm intrigued how he will store 600,000 kcals of food for the 2500 hours+ on that board. And Water... Any help from a helicopter will be a bit disingenuous.

Fresh water will presumably be reverse-osmosis energy-recovery desalination. These are normal on sailboats nowadays and often driven off a small PV array like shown on the pictures of the paddleboard.

Regards food, the paddleboard looks about the same size as people who have previously rowed across the Atlantic solo.

This was my question too, my bet is support from a vessel and so this whole thing is kind of silly.
