The
British "Barmouth to Fort William Three Peaks Yacht
Race"
The original "British Three Peaks Race" was first conducted in 1977 under the presidency of the late Major Harold William (Bill) Tilman CBE DSO MC, explorer, adventurer and mountaineer. It was the enthusiasm and help received from the British organisers and the challenge of such an event that led to the establishment of the Australian race in Tasmania in 1989.
For details of the life of Bill Tilman a comprehensive site has been prepared by one of his former expedition members.
