Infrastructure minister believes more services would have been affected without dredging work
The infrastructure minister believes more of this weekend's sailings would have been rescheduled if dredging work hadn't taken place in Douglas harbour earlier this month.
The Steam Packet Company has had to adjust a number of the Manxman's services this weekend due to the tidal conditions in the Manx capital.
While further work still needs to be carried out, a dredger was in Douglas earlier this month to tackle mud build-up after the Manxman got stuck.
Michelle Haywood says this weekend's conditions are particularly challenging:
Not guilty verdict in death by dangerous driving case
Inflation rate increases to 4.1%
Families say they are worse off under changes
'Suicide awareness isn't just one day - it's everyday"
