From memory, the closest point between the UK mainland and Northern
Ireland is around 20 miles, and as the UK claims a 12-mile territorial sea,
it should be possible to cross entirely within territorial waters.
>I read that the Isle of Man has no territorial waters
I believe a 12-mile territorial sea is claimed around the Isle of Man, but
I'm afraid I don't know whether this is considered to be its own waters or
an extension of the UK's.
