The vessel was diverted towards the Anglesey coast
The Manannan has been diverted on its journey to Liverpool this morning (5 August) after a medical emergency on board.
The Steam Packet Company has confirmed its crew have been responding to the 'medical situation' with 'relevant emergency services notified'.
The vessel was diverted towards the Anglesey coast 'in order to speed embarkation of an aeromedical team'.
A company spokesperson confirmed she is now proceeding to Liverpool Terminal with an ETA of 10:30am.
The 11.15am return journey will be slightly delayed as a result, but passengers are asked to check in as normal, as the crew will try to turn the vessel around as quickly as possible.
