Two Manxman sailings are at risk of disruption or cancellation due to an adverse weather forecast.

This afternoon’s 1.45pm sailing from Heysham to Douglas is expected to go ahead as planned.

However, the later 7.15pm sailing back to Heysham from Douglas is subject to disruption.

This means that the overnight 1.45am return sailing from Lancashire is also at risk.

To give the sailing every chance of going ahead, a decision on tonight’s 7.15pm trip will be made by the ship’s Master by 5pm tonight.
