OTLEY Sailing Club has added three new boats to its fleet thanks to a Sport England grant.
The club has used the £10,000 award to buy a trio of Hartley 12.2 sailing dinghies, which are designed to be easy to use while still exciting to sail.
The boats will be used both to teach beginners and to help established sailors try out more advanced techniques.
They will also be available for members to use for leisure sailing or in the club races that take place on Sunday afternoons and Wednesday evenings.
The public will be able to view one of the dinghies at the Otley Show on Saturday, when visitors will also be able to try sailing in one of the club's Comet dinghies out on the showground lake.
