Since writing the post last night , i have found that the Friends of the Ferries group have had reservations that the two ship operation would work , this has now shown itself to be correct it wont work , Mersey Ferries now seems to think the Manchester Ship Canal Cruises are now more important than there River Cruises , it is a sorry state of affairs .

Snowdrop was back in use today on the normal service giving the Iris a well earned rest day.

Due to a problem with the lock gates the Mersey Ferry service did not start until approx 0930.

The service has currently also been suspended due to an incident at Seacombe Ferry Terminal
