A commemoration to remember the 35 people who lost their lives in the Ellan Vannin tragedy more than a century ago has been held in Ramsey.
The Steam Packet vessel set off from the northern port on December 3 1909, but sank in heavy storms off Liverpool.
Chief Minister Allan Bell laid a wreath at the quayside on behalf of the Manx people, and there were others in memory of crew and passengers.
The outdoor memorial was followed by a church service.
Local dignitaries, MHKs and a representative from the Steam Packet joined a throng of well-wishers and descendants of victims at last night's event.
Mr Bell said it was a fitting salute to a tragic episode in Manx history:
Disruption at Ronaldsway airport following incident with light aircraft
Hopes for better working relationship between government and hospitality sector
'A lot of work to do' on low income housing
Public servants killed in the line of duty eligible for new award
Multi-million pound Villiers development recommended for approval
Rosalind Ranson row draws to a close
