How did they move the food over?

we loaded supplies on an orange rescue boat and took it to a tug boat who then transferred it to the triumph. if you look close in the pics you can see a small boat between the ships

Is that a 50 cal on top of the tug?

No. Those are deluge guns with solid bore nozzles for delivering over 1k gpm when in operation
