Some of the weekend's Manannan sailings have been re-scheduled

Passengers travelling on the Isle of Man's fast craft have been warned all of its of the weekend's sailings will all be with a two hour delay.

Sailings of the Manannan between Douglas and Liverpool, Heysham and Belfast have will all set off later than originally scheduled until Sunday.

The Isle of Man Steam Packet said the changes were due to time lost in recent days because of adverse sea conditions and increasing turnaround times in ports.

The ferry operator said the changes do not impact Manxman's sailings and passengers scheduled to travel on the Manannan had been contacted.

It follows delays to Friday morning's Manannan sailings due to weather routing.
