Fast craft services between the Isle of Man and Liverpool have been cancelled because of poor weather conditions.

The Isle of Man Steam Packet's Douglas to Liverpool service at 0730 BST and the return at 1115 BST have been cancelled due to high winds and rain.

Passengers will be transferred to services to and from Heysham.

The Steam Packet said forecast gales on Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday are also expected to affect the Liverpool services.
