It's been reported that the number of registered Nessie sightings in 2023 has reached double figures. Two more in-person claims have been added to the Official Loch Ness Monster Sightings Register, taking that tally to nine, with one webcam image also registered so far this year. The double appears to have come on successive days.
The register stated that on October 7:
"Sash Lake, visiting from Wiltshire, reported that at 12.20pm 'I was leaving Drumnadrochit on a coach, admiring the view while the coach was driving past the loch. It started to rain and a light fog rolled in, my view/vision was partly limited due to the trees alongside the loch, but something caught my eye for approximately five seconds and made me jump out of my skin, I saw a huge black mass/hump in the middle of the loch, roughly the size of a double-decker bus.
"I would say it was around 75-100 yards away from me. I was confused and in disbelief. I jumped to my feet to get a better look, trees completely blocked my view for about 5-8 seconds, there was a clearing in the trees, and when I looked back to where I saw the black mass/hump, there was nothing there.'"
She made a sketch of what she saw, which is on the official register's website. (seen below):
