Afternoon departure from Heysham and evening crossing from Douglas called off
Two sailings scheduled for later today have been cancelled due to the weather forecast.
The Steam Packet Company says the rapid deterioration of conditions expected later means the 1.45pm sailing from Heysham and the 7.15pm departure from Douglas won't be going ahead.
The ferry operator says customers impacted can amend their booking online or call the reservations team after 8.15am.
Winds reaching gale force seven and severe gale eight are forecast.
