Three-time Olympic gold medal winning sailor Ben Ainslie visits the Isle of Man today.
He's the guest speaker at a fund-raising dinner for the Isle of Man Children's Centre at the Hilton Hotel this evening.
Proceeds from the event will go towards their Mobex Project - a mobile scheme to help youngsters develop skills outside using arts, music and education.
As well as his Olympic exploits, which also includes a silver in Atlanta 1996, Ainslie has won nine World and European Championships.
He is currently the World Sailor of the Year, a title he has held twice before in 1998 and 2002.
Ben Ainslie is currently skipper of Team Origin - Great Britain's bid to compete in the America's Cup.
