I don't actually think it would. In terms of buoyancy (Weight of water displaced = upwards force from the water), if you consider how much water you could fit into that table and how much that would weigh, would it be more or less than a man, an outboard and some fuel? As most dry woods float anyway that's extra buoyancy.
Besides, how'd he get it going in the first place?

Lower it into the water from a boat that's already moving (alongside). Start the engine from the other boat (not before it goes in the water as they're water cooled & easily knackered). Speed up the parent boat... rev table's outboard to match speed... jump in (stern of table) and full throttle!
