It’s not new. It’s not dated. But look at the completion dates for the various phases. A lot of the development is done. The only new thing is that the old floating landing stage which was to be replaced by a cruise liner one operated by Liverpool, was delayed, Liverpool pulled out, and a new operator has come along. The King Edward Triangle with recent planning isn’t the old SP site. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newaccount Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 (edited) I see the Steam Packet are happy to change the schedule of the sailing from Liverpool to 2000 rather than 1915 becuase they're selling Aintreee packages. Yet, when they were asked to change the Sunday sailings to 2000 to accomodate those who want to go to 1630 matches at Anfield or Goodison they refused - citing tide times ! 😲 Edited April 12 by newaccount Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banker Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 So Ben sails this morning and usual Facebook suspects are on saying it’s because Manxman is unable to sail, no lifeboats etc etc even though the planned maintenance days were announced months ago. Seacat sails & everyone happy, it’s now returned with reports of rough sailing, many sick & cars damaged & now it’s all Manxman fault, steam packet etc etc and even see mentioned King orry didn’t have these problems 😂 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
