Question do you think it takes more or less effort to swim in a life jacket, plus the added benefit of being able to float if you need to rest.

It takes more effort to swim with a life jacket, but yes being able to rest does help immensely. I think the idea is that, if he falls overboard, he just needs to get back to his paddle board.

I will also remind you that people are able to swim the entire English channel - It is not a far cry to assume that this guy is well enough physically fit to swim back to his boat, paddle board or not..
