Torquay United have signed former Plymouth Argyle defender Finley Craske.
The 20-year-old from Cornwall played three times in League One for the Pilgrims before being released at the end of last season.
During 2022-23 he had time on loan at Yeovil Town in the National League and helped Truro City win promotion to National League South.
"Fin is a super athlete and can play in several positions," Torquay boss Gary Johnson told the club website.
"Fin had a super debut game at Plainmoor against Plymouth on Tuesday, and I'm delighted he's chosen us to enjoy his football."

Torquay United have signed winger Dillon De Silva on a permanent deal.
The 21-year-old Sri Lanka international scored four goals in 26 games for the Gulls while on loan from Queens Park Rangers last season.
De Silva did not make a senior appearance for QPR.
"He's someone we've been keeping in touch with throughout the summer and throughout pre-season and eventually we agreed that he would come to us," said Torquay United manager Gary Johnson.
"I'm sure the Yellow Army will be happy and Dillon's buzzing to be back.
"It's good to bring someone in at this late stage that knows our club and knows our culture, and we obviously know him."

Torquay United have made their first signing since the club was taken over by new owners.
The club have signed Taunton Town defender Jay Foulston on a two-year deal.
The 23-year-old spent time on loan at National League South winners Yeovil Town last season.
Foulston is a former Wales Under-19 international and was on the books of Newport County as a youngster.
Torquay had their transfer embargo formally lifted at the weekend after the takeover by the Bryn Consortium was completed.
The Gulls ended last season in administration meaning they were not allowed to sign new players.
