The coastguard received reports that a hire charger boat, named the Mull of Kintrye, had sailed into “fairly rough conditions” on the loch on Sunday. The life boat was launched from the Loch Ness station at about 11.30am. The crew was able to successfully trace the boat and bring the two people onboard back to shore safely. A spokesman from the coastguard confirmed there was no damage to the boat and no injuries to report. He added: “The two people who were onboard are safe and well.”
