'Incredible': Man's solo paddleboard trip from San Francisco to Honolulu breaks record

76 days. 5 hours. 22 minutes. That's how long it took for Spanish endurance athlete Antonio de la Rosa to voyage across the winds and currents of the Pacific Ocean, with only the help of his 24-foot long trusty stand-up paddle board, The Ocean Defender.

His journey of self-described "absolute loneliness and self-sufficiency" began in San Francisco on June 4. He paddled just over 2,900 miles to his Honolulu destination with the aim of raising awareness about protecting the ocean from man-made pollution.
