Room for 948 passengers but currently limited to 600
The Manxman will soon be able to sail at full capacity.
Since entering service, the Steam Packet's new vessel has been sailing with a passenger limit of 600 while final crew training was completed.
That's the capacity of the Ben-my-Chree - which has had to step in to cover Heysham sailings when wind-restrictions prevented the Manxman sailing.
Treasury Minister Alex Allinson told the House of Keys yesterday (24 October) that restrictions are about to change:
Thresholds for first time buyers schemes need addressing, says commissioner
Manx Utilities engineers investigating burst water mains
'Specialist training' for teachers delivering Sex Ed classes
Lack of resources impacting charities registering with AG
Ramsey Community Hub to install new bench made out of felled cherry tree
Average time to answer 999 call remains at 1.5 seconds in March
