A new "minibus" ferry could soon be running from Cumbria to the Isle of Man.
Whitehaven and Workington MP Josh MacAlister has launched an online survey to gauge demand for a ferry to Whitehaven.
He says a local company is interested in operating its 12-seater boat from Whitehaven Harbour - a 45-mile journey to Douglas.
On his website, he's asking for people's views, what they'd use it for and how much they'd pay for it.
