In the summer of 1979, Diane Meyer Lowman, a nineteen-year-old
Middlebury College student, embarked on a ten-week working trip
aboard a German container ship with a mostly male crew. The journey
would take her from New York to Australia and New Zealand and back,
through the lush Panama Canal, to a Koala sanctuary and a Maori
Museum. She swabbed decks and mended linens, navigated not only the
Panama Canal, but perhaps more harrowingly the awkward and
sometimes threatening mostly male shipboard society and its
politics. The voyage would forever change her perspective on the
world and her place in it. She left the port of New York a
subservient, malleable girl and sailed back past the Statue of
Liberty on her return as a more confident, independent, resilient
young woman who'd learned to stand on her own two feet even if the
roughest of waters.
