Manannan will be back in service tomorrow

Fri, 10 Apr 2015

The Manannan will be back in service on the seas tomorrow.

That's the message from the Steam Packet Company - which says the vessel's two starboard water jets and the starboard trim tab have been fixed.

It follows a week of cancelled sailings - resulting in disrupted travel plans for thousands of people.

Manannan has successfully managed berthing trials and a short sea trial just off Douglas this afternoon.

It means that it's ready to return to operational service for the 7:30am crossing to Liverpool.
