GOLD medallist Hannah Mills and Silver medallist Nick Dempsey have returned to a welcome home party on Portland.
The pair, who competed in Rio for team GB, were welcomed by family and friends as they got back to the isle this afternoon.
Mills won gold in the women's 470 dinghy with partner Saskia Clark, after narrowly missing out on the top spot four years ago.
Dempsey claimed silver in the men's R:SX windsurfing.
It was GB's most successful Olympic campaign ever, scooping 27 golds, 23 silvers and 17 bronze medals.
