Steam Packet launches blog

The Steam Packet Company is looking to keep people updated on how its new vessel is taking shape.

The organisation has launched a blog to let people know how the building of the 'Manxman' is coming along.

The new boat is expected to replace the Ben-my-Chree in 2023 and is being constructed in South Korea.

It was named following a public vote involving more than 7,500 people.

Residents can see the story of the boat so far via the blog on the Steam Packet Company website.
