Did you know?

Loch Ness holds more water than all the lakes, rivers, canals and reservoirs in the whole of England and Wales combined! The deepest point in Loch Ness is 126 Fathoms which is twice the average depth of the North Sea! This is where you will find the Loch Ness Monster chilling on most days

Loch Ness freaks me out and not because of the non-existent monster – it's just too big! I feel the same about the Caspian Sea.

How much is that in leagues?

R2 a league is a measure of distance, not depth.

But you won't find him.

You're right, but only because it's a SHE. A lady monster. A monstress.

A fathom is 6 feet, so 126 fathoms is 756 feet. That's 230 Meters for the communists reading this.

And the North Sea is notoriously shallow, hence all the offshore wind farms there. So not the best comparison.

But still, 230 metres is a lot for a lake. Too much, in fact.
