Engine problem slows ferry sailings

A technical problem with a ferry means she'll be sailing slightly behind schedule today.

The Steam Packet Company says one of the Manannan's engines suffered a malfunction today on her Douglas to Liverpool crossing.

As a result, her sailings will be slightly slower and longer than usual.

Today's sailing to Douglas is expected to arrive shortly after 3pm, and her return trip to Liverpool will now set out at 3.45pm.

Engineers are on their way to inspect the problem, and the company says it hopes to have repairs completed by tomorrow.
