1928年，22岁的澳大利亚音乐教师珍妮·戴在南澳大利亚巴拉克拉瓦展开了一场大胆的冒险1。她伪装成男性，在林肯港偷渡登上德国籍帆船Herzogin Cecilie号，意图前往英国1。这位女教师在船出海三天后因饥渴而被发现1。尽管被发现，她依然坚持不懈，最终到达了英格兰法尔茅斯港1，其冒险经历随后被全球报纸广泛报道。
Herzogin Cecilie号完成了一次壮观的远洋航程，航行22,531公里，用时96天赢得了第四次谷物运输竞赛1。珍妮·戴的故事在近百年后仍然具有深远意义，激励着当代女性海员1。这段历史凸显了海事业中女性从被禁止到逐步获得平等机会的演进过程。根据澳大利亚海事安全局数据，全球120万海员中女性仅占2%，澳大利亚海员中女性占5%1；国际海事组织2024年调查显示，海上作业的海员中女性占1%1。
In 1928, Jeanne Day, a 22-year-old music teacher from Barrackville in South Australia, embarked on a remarkable adventure by disguising herself as a male and stowing away aboard the German sailing ship Herzogin Cecilie at Port Lincoln 1. Three days into the voyage, she was discovered due to hunger and thirst, but her determination saw her through to the journey's end 1. The ship ultimately reached Falmouth in England after traveling 22,531 kilometers over 96 days, winning the fourth grain race competition 1. Her extraordinary story was widely covered by newspapers around the world at the time 1.
Day's bold journey took place during an era when women were largely excluded from maritime professions. More than a century later, her legacy continues to inspire contemporary female seafarers 1. According to data from the Australian Maritime Safety Authority, women comprise only 2 percent of approximately 1.2 million seafarers globally, though they represent 5 percent of Australian maritime personnel 1. A 2024 International Maritime Organization survey indicates that women account for just 1 percent of seafarers engaged in sea-based work 1. Her stowaway voyage stands as an early testament to women's perseverance in breaking barriers within the maritime industry, foreshadowing the gradual progress toward greater opportunities and equality at sea 1.
