Silting issues at Heysham a regular issue for Ben-my-Chree
It's unlikely sailing to Fleetwood rather than Heysham would solve the silt problems the Steam Packet Company faces when sailing to Lancashire.
That's from pilot and former Douglas South MHK Paul Quine.
The ferry operator's managing director recently said silting remains a problem for the Ben-my-Chree when entering Heysham.
But Mr Quine believes that issue isn't unique to Heysham:
Further sailings cancelled due to adverse weather
Friday's Heysham crossings affected
UK Government under scrutiny over Manx assisted dying legislation
David Lammy has still not made a recommendation that royal assent be granted
Men jailed for £49,000 cocaine ferry importation plot
