Ben-my-Chree to undertake trip to Heysham

Manxman won't make the journey

The Isle of Man Steam Packet Company has confirmed this afternoon's crossing to Heysham will go ahead.

It will now be facilitated by the Ben-my-Chree rather than the Manxman.

It had been in doubt due to today's weather conditions in the Irish Sea.

This afternoon's sailing to Liverpool has been cancelled.

There is a yellow weather warning currently in place across the Island for coastal overtopping.
