What an incredible story
A man who quit his job to hunt for the Loch Ness Monster has been living in a van on the shores of the loch for more than 30 years.
He quickly "fell in love with the mystery" of the monster, but it wasn't until Steve turned 28 that he decided to ditch his old life behind and move to Scotland in search of the beast. He has now spent the last 30 years hunting for evidence of Nessie from the shores of the loch. After returning to Loch Ness several more times on further family holidays, Steve's fascination continued to grow. Eventually, he began journeying to the loch alone on "expeditions".
At this point, Steve quit his job, sold his house, and purchased the former mobile library van - which has no running water or electricity. It has remained his home ever since he moved to Loch Ness in 1991. This week's top Scotland Now stories "He's been driving that boat for 40 years and then, out of the blue, there was a very big sonar contact 600 feet down, which wasn't there on the previous trip and wasn't there on the following trip. I think that's the best bit of evidence I've ever seen."
