Seas The Day: Jessica Rowe & Miriam Payne
Jess and Miriam of the Seas the Day Ocean Rowing Team will share their extraordinary story of spending five and a half months at sea on a 9.5 metre boat, rowing 8,000 miles across the Pacific Ocean from Peru to Australia.
This expedition earned multiple world records along the way including the first female team to row the Pacific Ocean non-stop and unsupported. Their journey was far from straightforward: early setbacks forced them to restart the expedition and even the second attempt brought serious challenges that tested their endurance, problem-solving and creativity.
Throughout the voyage, they faced the relentless realities of life at sea — limited space, equipment failures, and isolation — but also experienced unforgettable highs: incredible wildlife, stunning sunrises and the vast, ever-changing beauty of the open ocean. The talk offers a down-to-earth account of resilience, teamwork and determination, showing how courage and ingenuity can help overcome one of the worlds toughest and most remote challenges.
