Steam Packet boat race
The Steam Packet never fail, do they?

I understand from Mr Woodwards blog that they are "expecting to start Manannan in service on 22nd May, 2 weeks before TT
Thats a week before we are due to sail on her

This is IF its finished, IF it passes sea trials and IF it satisfies all the regulatory bodies

Now call me an old worry guts, but.....
