Loch Ness Water movement

I watched a program about this a few years back.

Adran Shine is one of the foremost experts on Loch Ness and has done a lot of research over the years including a sweep of the loch with sonar. He is a scientist though so he's not really trying to find a monster, rather disprove it exists.

We spent a week on the loch a few years back, it sure can be a spooky place to be late at night in the middle of the loch on a 30 foot boat.
 
The underwater waves and unusual ripples that can be seen on occasion on the surface of the lake maybe the source for the monster legends. I can imagine a relatively smooth loch surface suddenly disturbed by ripples from out of the blue seen by the naked eye a few hundred years ago would have had no other explanation.

Yep.

That and boat waves these days. I have seen boat wakes still going on the loch long after the boat has passed and they can look surprisingly like 'real' Nessie humps.
 
Surely the monster should be named "Eliot" untouchable and unwatchable.
Maybe emigrated to Lake Michigan.
