Amelia Curran looks high and dry as she tries out one of three new sailing dinghies bought by the North Herts and East Beds Sailing Club thanks to funding from Sport England.
The 11-year-old was in Hitchin town centre on Saturday, where the club was promoting activities at its base at the Blue Lagoon in Arlesey. The three three Argo boats – named Wilson, Ayrton and Gosling after female Olympic sailors – are ideal for beginners.
You can try one of the new boats for free and find out more about what’s on offer at the club’s annual open day on Saturday, May 14. Find about more about the event at www.nhebsc.org.uk.
