Manxman sailings red-flagged until Christmas Eve
The Managing Director of the Steam Packet Company says the Ben-my-Chree would not have sailed in the current conditions.
All sailings of the Manxman from this afternoon until Christmas Eve are subject to possible disruption because of the weather.
The Steam Packet is working on plans to use MV Arrow for freight services.
Brian Thomson says he feels for people whose Christmas plans could be affected:
