Bad weather could affect Friday and Saturday sailings

Two ferry sailings could be facing disruption this weekend.

The Steam Packet Company says Friday's 7.15pm Douglas to Heysham crossing on the Manxman could be rescheduled or called off because of bad weather.

That also means her return trip at 1.45am on Saturday could be affected.

A final decision by the vessel's master is due to be made by 5pm on Friday.

Meanwhile, Friday's 8am Douglas to Heysham crossing will leave at 7.30am, while the Manxman's return voyage at 1.45pm will now leave at 1.15pm.
