Apology over ferry service delays
Superseacat Two
Sailings on three routes are affected
The Isle of Man Steam Packet Company has apologised for delays to Superseacat Two journey times after a mechanical failure.

One of the four engines on the ferry has broken, meaning slower journey times for passengers to Dublin, Belfast and Liverpool.

The engine has been sent to Germany for repairs, but it is not known how long work will take.

Steam Packet says the length of delays will also depend on weather conditions.
