The Boat That Struck Morag, 16 August 1969

Loch Morar, Lochaber

16 August 1969

They described it as brown, 25 to 30 feet long, with rough skin, three dorsal humps rising 18 inches above the loch's surface and a head a foot wide held 18 inches out of the water. ShukerNature dates it 16 August 1969 and quotes rough, dirty-brown skin.

The case is a single two-man report, famous because they claimed to have been attacked. No physical evidence was found.
