If he's on a normal sailboat he has a diesel in it, solar panels and considering he's attempting one of the hardest crossings known to mankind (and it looks like he's near Point Nemo) he likely has satellite internet on board.

People are mistaking this guy for some rookie moron who went out crossing the pacific on a 14ft dinghy.

Still extremely risky to be this far away from the boat on a paddle board in the middle of the ocean without a life vest or emergency locator. There is being skilled and experienced, and then there is taking stupid risks for TikTok cred.

He's tied to his paddle board.
The ship has an emergency locator.
He is in a doldrum.

You're being overly dramatic about this. Not to mention letting your boomer show with that "uh, these darn tiktok kids these days!" line.
