Fastcraft changes for next TT

by isleofman.com 23rd July 2014
The Isle of Man Steam Packet is going to add an extra mezzanine vehicle deck to the Manannan fastcraft for next year.

The move will allow an extra 130 motorcycles to be transported on each sailing during the busy TT and Festival of Motorcycling periods next year.

It comes as a response to growing demand in recent years with a 25% increase in the number of bikes travelling to the events.

Steam Packet Chief Executive Mark Woodward says chartering a freight vessel during the key periods has allowed this to happen:-Clip 1
