We've been talking in trying to determine what we need to eat while rowing... We can't carry a lot of supplies on board due to weight, however we need enough calories in us to maintain body mass and weight or we will not have enough strength to row...
According to Rowing Australia, we need to put in about 10-12 g of carbs daily per kg of body weight.

I weight 161 lbs. - which is 73kg. So I need 730g of carbs daily... and multiply that over 3 months? A hell of a lot of food that we have no space for!
Of course, sushi= fishing in the ocean. One option to look at. We can get a whole bunch of powders - but that requires a lot of water to mix it with.
An idea that Robert has come up from his hiking days is gorp... a trail mix of dried foods such as almonds, raisins, cashews etc... grab a handful and snack on them as you go. I'm sure we'll run out of them pretty much in a week.
Of course, we're expecting to burn 10 000 calories a day. I don't think it really matters what we eat as it will be burned immediately.
For those who have done looonng expeditions, let us know what you've eaten and how much it weighed....
