Issues with port extend further than weather events
The Steam Packet Company is 'in constant dialogue' with Peel Ports, which owns Heysham Port, over its upkeep.
Over the weekend, poor visibility in fog caused three sailings from Douglas to turn back.
Problems in Heysham extend further than simply weather events, according to the Steam Packet's managing director.
Brian Thomson says a good port is in everyone's interests:
