Is it possible to cross the Pacific Ocean in a row boat?

I was just wondering whether it is possible to cross the Pacific Ocean, from Brisbane, Australia to San Francisco, California, USA, in a simple row boat, without any outboard engines. And how long it will take to row... I want to attempt it, any help on this forum will be greatly appreciated. Please give genuine answers only, I am really serious in undertaking this adventure.

it would take about 1 year or 5 months depending how fast you can row. and it is possible i think someone got in the world records for it

You'll need a support vessel.I don't think you can carry enough food for the calories you'll burn.Good luck

it is possible but lots of stuff can go wrong

Yikes !!

I have done the San Francisco to Hawaii run in a 40 foot sailboat, and THAT was scary enough !!

A quick look at wikipedia provides this information however:

Having become the first person to row any ocean solo in 1969, John Fairfax set off from San Francisco in California on 26 April 1971 with Sylvia Cook. After three stops (in Mexico, Fanning Island and the Onotoa Gilbert Islands) the two arrived on Hayman Island in Australia 361 days later on 22 April 1972. In doing so Cook became the first woman to row any Ocean.

The first person to row the Pacific solo was Peter Bird of Britain. Bird set off from San Francisco, California and arrived at the Great Barrier Reef Australia 294 days later on June 14, 1983. Bird would later die attempting the west to east journey across the Pacific.

Controversially, Briton Jim Shekhdar later made the claim to be "the first person to row across the Pacific single-handed". Shekhdar had rowed across the Pacific non-stop, solo and unassisted arriving in Australia on 30 March 2001. Some within the sport felt that Shekhdar had not given due credit to the achievement of Peter Bird and the term "unassisted" also came under some scrutiny.

You would want to look into specific times of year when the currents would work to your advantage, definitely get a support vessel, get some sponsors to pay for some hard core gear. You would want to know what you are doing, people disappear all the time trying to undertake much less. Sorry to be morbid. Good luck with the adventure.
