Dad and son adventurer canoeists were nearly up the creek after being whacked by a mystery object – on Loch Ness.

Experienced guide Geoff Potts and son Chris had the scary encounter at the legendary Location earlier this month.

The pair were paddling in separate canoes on the loch when both of them were hit hard from below.

The impact was so sudden it nearly knocked the paddle from Chris’ grip.

It comes just days after it was reported Duncan Roberts was hit in the chest by a mystery creature while swimming across the loch.

Geoff, 53, and Chris 24, have canoed there many times and never had such an encounter.

Geoff told What’s The Jam: “I guide canoe trips on the Great Glen.

“I’ve done around 40 or so in the last few years.

“A few weeks ago, while I was out with my son Chris something bumped my canoe hard from below.

“And when I mentioned it to Chris, he said he hit something with his paddle which nearly took it out of his hand.

“I didn’t see anything.

“I just felt a big thump against the bottom of my boat.

“I’ve completed around 40 crossings since 2021 including the first recorded non-stop solo crossing that I’m aware of in an open canoe. “

He added the impact felt different to hitting a log.

“Loch Ness has an impressive presence about it – I mean it’s huge,” he said.

“As I’ve completed it so many times it was confusing to get a thud which sounded dull.

“I have hit logs before, but this was not like hitting wood at all.

“You immediately wonder what it was.

“But the water is so dark you can only see down a foot or so.

“My son Chris has his own business running trips like this and he’s never experienced anything like this either.”

Duncan Roberts was just as shocked when he was hit from below on his swim.

He revealed: “There is some weird energy at play in that water

“And during my swim I experienced a bump half way across.

“It was something big.

“The water is pitch black and I had my eyes closed a lot of the time as the depth and darkness terrified me so I didn’t see anything.

“I just felt it, a big thud in the chest.”

And last month a hydrophone device – which detects noise underwater – picked up a strange sound in the loch that had experts questioning what could be lurking in the depths.

Underwater detectors picked up a regular heartbeat creating a serious monster buzz.

The rhythmic pulsing was detected on a hydrophone – a device that measures underwater sounds in all directions – that was deployed some 100 feet below the Scottish lake’s surface.

While the source of the sound is unclear experts were abuzz with excitement.
