Investigations to take place after vessel hits wall in Heysham Port
The managing director of the Steam Packet Company has blamed 'tight entrances' at Heysham and Douglas as a factor in Wednesday's incident with the Manxman.
The vessel - which was delivered to the Island a little more than a year ago - collided with a wall as it entered the Lancashire port during rough weather in the early hours.
It caused minor damage and a temporary fix should see the Manxman back in service tonight.
Brian Thomson told Manx Radio an investigation will take place and lessons will be learned:
Manx Care 'deeply regrets' data request errors
Woman bitten by dog in Crosby
Environmental surveys scheduled for proposed wind farm in south of Island
No 20mph 'blanket speed limits', says MHK
