Packet exploring new options
A new ferry route between the Isle of Man and Northern Ireland could begin in the near future, if Steam Packet berthing trials are a success.
The company has confirmed it's testing the Ben-my-Chree's capability to dock in the port of Larne.
There are currently four regular passenger crossings between Douglas and Belfast per week.
It's expected that a move to Larne would mean the end of that route.
Brendan O'Friel from passenger watchdog TravelWatch says there are a number of factors for the Packet to consider:

Minister gives full backing to new hygiene ratings scheme for eateries
Poet says Gaiety's Katie Hopkins booking is 'not appropriate'
Almost 3,000 take part in Pilates world record attempt at Knockaloe
