Maybe not the most practical way to save on airfare, but there was an article at the Honolulu Advertiser about a British woman that sailed her way from San Francisco to Waikiki in a row boat. It only took 99 days.
Turns out it’s only part of a plan to go all the way across the Pacific on her own. Her reward? Six months in Hawaii before she leaves for Australia.
Better watch out for the Superferry. 
Kidding aside, she does have a good purpose for doing this, so be sure to take a read of the full article if you haven’t seen it yet.
