The Manx Islands Games team collected a further seven medals on Tuesday to take our tally to 32 so far.
With one gold, one silver and five bronze added, Manx athletes shone in the pool, archery, bikes and athletics.
In the pool, Alex Turnbull secured his second individual medal with bronze in the men’s 50m breaststroke while Joel Watterson clinched silver in the 200m freestyle.
But it is was in the freestyle team relay where the Manxmen really shone as the team of Watterson, Zachary Bellhouse, Magnus Kelly and Harry Robinson claimed gold.
Bronzes
The mountain bike team also claimed bronze as Eric Kelly, Callum Salisbury, Owen Collins, Ross Thorley and Mark Horsthuis placed behind Channel Island rivals Jersey and Guernsey.
Kelly was the highest placed finisher on the team, coming in sixth overall with Salisbury in seventh.
In athletics, Aimee Christian claimed a second successive 400m hurdles bronze as she just missed out behind competitors from Guernsey and the Faroes.
While teenager Sam Perry came third in the 1,500m with a blistering last lap securing the podium spot.
Taking aim at medals, Ethan Moore and Aalin George clinched bronze in the archery mixed compound event.
