The Telegraph: Did Russian submarine nearly drag Scottish fishing trawler to watery grave?
A fishing crew have claimed their boat was nearly dragged underwater by a submarine - but there were no British vessels in the area
A trawler captain has claimed his boat was nearly dragged to a watery grave by a rogue Russian submarine while fishing off the Scottish coast.
Angus Macleod said he and his four crew were "extremely lucky" after his net became snagged on a mystery submerged object, which almost pulled the boat and crew under the waves.
The Royal Navy has said there were no British or Nato submarines in the area at the time. In recent months it has been alleged that Russian submarines have been operating in British waters.
Mr MacLeod and his crew were fishing aboard the 41-year-old wooden Aquarius about ten miles east of the Butt of Lewis in 360 feet of water on Tuesday.
WNU Editor: A friend of mine who enjoys sailing off the Florida coast had a similar experience a few years ago (he was not fishing). He a few others were in their sailboat when all of a sudden they sense/felt something very big underneath them and moving very fast .... and when they looked over the side all that they saw was a large dark shadow that quickly disappeared. Just thinking about it gives me the chills.
