History
Otley Sailing Club was formed in 1958
and at that time sailing took place at Knotford Nook near the Otley to Pool
road. With no possibility of expansion at that site ,the decision was taken in
1976, to move the club to its present location on Weston Water. Access to
Weston Water involves crossing through Otley Cattle Market and the Hanson quarry
site.
Over the years and with the encouragement
and assistance of the AMEY Roadstone Corporation (ARC), now Hanson, we have continued to
improve and develop the facilities available to members.
Our sailing Lake now covers an area of
27 acres with an average depth of 6 metres.
