Another big boat in the bay!

by isleofman.com 9th July 2008
The cruise liner MS Prinsendam is in Douglas Bay today.

She arrived around 7.30 this morning (Wed) and her 750 passengers will be spending the day touring the Island and enjoying trips on the Manx Electric Railway and the Snaefell Mountain Railway.

The cruise ship last visited the Island in September.

Earlier this morning her Captain and Senior Crew members came ashore to attend the formal opening of the new pontoon facility in Douglas Harbour.

Director of Harbours Mike Brew (pictured) says the new facility is of great use for small vessels:

The Prinsendam will depart for Belfast at five o'clock this afternoon.
