A Nessie hunter is being hired to lead boat tours on Loch Ness and the pay is £180 a day

Researchers on the famous water need a skipper for their boat.

The Loch Ness Centre is recruiting a captain to navigate their Deepscan trips.

They use sonar to search for the legendary beast.

The job advert reads: “We’re on the hunt for an adventurous skipper to take the helm of its Deepscan Cruise vessel.

“Meaning the successful candidate will spend their days searching for the legendary Nessie while navigating the world-famous waters of Loch Ness.

“The unique opportunity, based in the heart of the Scottish Highlands, requires a passion for storytelling.

“In order to give guests unique insight into famous monster sightings as well as sharing the history of the world’s most famous loch.

“You’ll share the story of Nessie, guide guests using state-of-the-art sonar, and be part of cutting-edge research in search of the legendary monster.

“If you’re passionate, qualified, and ready for an adventure, apply now.”

The downside of the job is it is only from April to October.

The Loch Ness Monster is often described as large, long-necked and with one or more humps protruding from the water.

Popular interest and belief in the creature has varied since it was brought to worldwide attention in 1933.

There are multiple sightings each year.

In 2024 underwater detectors picked up a regular heartbeat deep in Loch Ness.

The rhythmic pulsing was picked up on a hydrophone that was deployed 100-feet beneath the surface.

And experts were excited

At the time Alan McKenna from the research group Loch Ness Exploration told What’s The Jam: “At first we believed that the hydrophone might be getting dragged along the bottom but the boat skipper confirmed the cable was at least five metres from the bottom.

“You can clearly hear a rhythmic pulse or heartbeat within the recording.

“We’ve no idea what was causing this sound but it’s very interesting.”
