Entry is now open for the Three Peaks Yacht Race which celebrates its 45th year in 2023.

Regarded as the oldest multi-sport endurance race in the world, the Three Peaks race is a combination of yacht racing and summit runs up the tallest peaks in Wales, England and Scotland.

Ireland has previously enjoyed success in the four-day endurance challenge, with Magic Touch — an Irish Beneteau First 34.7 — claiming the IRC trophy and placing second overall in the 2018 race, as previously reported on Afloat.ie.

For more information on and details of how to enter the Barmouth to Fort William Three Peaks Yacht Race, starting on 10 June 2023, see threepeaksyachtrace.co.uk.
