cheesypeas Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 We’re delighted to confirm that Manxman’s inaugural return passenger sailing to Heysham will take place on Thursday 17th August, departing Douglas at 08:45, returning at 14:15. After more than 1,200,000 man hours meticulously crafting every last detail, our new flagship Manxman will soon enter service and we can’t wait to welcome our first passengers on board. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Wright Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 So 4 weeks of Manxman at 08.45 and 14.15 return and Ben at 20.45 and 02.15 return, followed by 4 weeks of Ben at 08.45 and 14.15 return and Manxman doing the nighttime rotation. Lots of positioning manoeuvres in Douglas Harbour between 07.00 and 08.00 and 19.00 and 20.00. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s also not got in more times than it has got in. It has Navy Lark writ large. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0bserver Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 I'm going go sit this one out. Got a bad feeling about it since the champagne bottle didn't smash the first time when they christened it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should I do my familiarisation and put my name on the muster list as supernoodly just in case? I think the basic sea survival should still be valid.

Would've thought it's passed for you now Frank, only get your 5 years on the BST and the medical is way gone! 😅 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Jack is going to draw you 'like those french girls' we don't need to see it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
