Thu, 07 Jul 2016

An Onchan man who's been accused of being drunk and disorderly on the Manannan will stand trial next month.

31-year-old Shawn Bartlett appeared at Douglas Courthouse on Monday where a trial date was set for August 15th.

He's previously denied the offence which allegedly took place on the Steam Packet vessel on April 10th.

The court was told it could accept jurisdiction and deal with the matter as it involves a Manx registered vessel.
