Main Manx Ferry to Resume Service After Repairs to Propeller
The main Isle of Man passenger and freight ferry will return to service earlier than expected after a damaged propeller was repaired, the operator has said.
As BBC News reports, Ben-my-Chree was damaged during a crossing between Douglas and Heysham, Lancashire, on 27 August.
A spare propeller blade was readily available and meant repairs were completed "ahead of plan", the Steam Packet Company said.
Services were expected to resume on Friday but will now do so on Tuesday.
