The first Superseacat sailing of the season, tomorrow morning's 8am service from Douglas to Liverpool's Pier Head, has been brought forward by two hours to 6am.
The current forecast is for strengthening winds, perhaps to gale force eight, and the sailing has been rescheduled to make use of a predicted window in the weather.
A final decision will be made by the captain of the vessel on Saturday morning.
