Overnight Manxman sailing cancelled after 'technical issue'

No newspapers in shops today

Last night's Steam Packet sailings to and from Heysham were cancelled due to a technical issue with the Manxman.

Passengers had boarded the vessel ahead of the 7:45pm journey to the Lancashire port before it was called off.

Currently, today's sailings are unaffected.

Due to last night's cancellations there will be no newspaper distribution today.

GE Whites says it will distribute a reduced supply alongside Saturday’s titles. Readers should contact their newsagent to order copies.

The Isle of Man Courier is also delayed and will be delivered to distributors on Saturday.

Manx Radio has contacted the Isle of Man Steam Packet for further comment on the 'technical issues'.
