Irish competitors and marshals travel tomorrow morning
Officials at Rally Isle of Man headquarters are anxiously looking to the skies and Steam Packet schedules ahead of the event starting on Thursday afternoon.
A weather warning for rain has been issued by the Ronaldsway Met Office but organisers are concerned about the winds causing disruption to sailings.
John Gill from Rally Isle of Man says he hopes Storm Aileen has calmed down enough to allow tomorrow morning's Manannan trip to Belfast to take place:-
