I have been to La Reserve twice and have both times done the Sailing Plus course which I have thoroughly enjoyed .
My family are keen to go to La Reserve again as we all had a great time there on the previous occasions we have been.
However , where do you go once you have done Sailing Plus? Are there any plans for any different courses?
What would be great were if there were an opportunity to perhaps try a monohull which was more high performance - some sort of trapeze boat with an asymmetric maybe?
What to do after sailing plus?

Re: What to do after sailing plus?
Thank you for your message, this is a comment that we have received from a couple of families in a similar situation to yourselves who really enjoy the holiday experience at La Reserve but need the next challenge to keep them involved and developing their sailing skills with each visit.
As such for 2010 at La Reserve we are going to reintroduce our Advanced Sailing course which will concentrate on the RYA Performance Sailing and Spinnaker Sailing syllabuses with the aim of achieving those certificates. This will allow us to tweak the Sailing Plus program slightly to provide focused half day sessions over a wide variety of topics so people can gain experience in a range of areas without going ino the depth of a full certificated course. Hopefully with the addition of the Advanced Sailing course many of our guests can use this as another step to enable them to get even more from the Rockley experience.
Beyond this many people like to look at the possibility of going on to gain their RYA Dinghy Instructor qualification which is where our Rockley Point centre in Poole really comes into it's own. Here in the UK we run Instructor Training courses every month from February to November which make us the market leaders in this area whether you want to help out at your local club or centre or are just interested to see what dinghy instructing is all about.
