Ben-my-Chree sailings have been delayed today after the boat lost control in Douglas Harbour last night.
Engineers are still working on the vessel changing components - once completed the system will be tested, if succesful the boat should be able to resume sailing.
The Ben suffered technical failure as it was trying to berth at around 5.30pm.
Steam Packet chief executive Mark Woodward tells us what happened:
The boat was finally able to berth around four hours later - Mr Woodward says it didn't escape without damage:
