This solo adventurer rode a stand-up paddleboard 2,950 miles from California to Hawaii, becoming first to achieve this. He says he saw nets and debris throughout his 76-day journey and hopes his trip will bring awareness of man-made pollution in the ocean.
A three-month paddleboat float across the Pacific Ocean might seem crazy to the rest of us, but for Antonio de la Rosa it was just another challenge.
The Spanish endurance athlete completed a 2,951-mile journey from San Francisco, California, to Oahu, Hawaii, on Saturday, using just a specially-designed stand-up paddleboard. The journey took him 76 days -- and he had company on every one: Plastic."I am feeling so good after 76 days in the middle of the ocean," de la Rosa told CNN. He added that he hoped the trip would bring attention to the problem of plastic pollution in the ocean.
