sounds crazy, i know, but at least one person plans to do this:

Mary Rose of Chirping Central is set to row across (part of) the Pacific
from Monterey Bay to Hawaii to raise money and awareness for avian
conservation... lets get the word out and support her in her effort.

"Yes we are rowing an ocean: For the birds."

Sometimes when you have a passion for something it takes you to places you
never even dreamed you would go. And so, onJune 7, 2014 the race begins -
2400 miles across the Pacific from Monterey Bay, California to Honolulu,
Hawaii. Entirely powered by human muscle, Mary will be participating in the
Great Pacific Race in 2014 as a solo participant. This means that every
single mile between Monterey Bay and Honolulu has to be rowed by Mary. It
will be a huge test of physical and mental strength, and will take
approximately 90 days to complete.
