		<title>Beginner to Day Skipper in a fortnight!</title>

		<title>Phoenix from the Ashes: The prettiest boat you&#8217;ve ever seen</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m about to pre-order this book from Amazon. It&#8217;s due to be published any day now.    After a fire destroyed their house, Justin Ruthven-Tyers and his wife Linda decided to build a 15-ton classic yacht, as complete amateurs &#8211; starting with the trees. Working under the watchful eye of local sheep farmers who gave [...]]]></description>

		<title>Follow the Sailing Princess</title>
		<description><![CDATA[~ a non-swimmer&#8217;s guide to adventures that are scary as heck, fun like crazy, &#38; living to tell the tale! Princess Cox sailed with us in November 2011. Formally a self-confessed workaholic she was bitten by the sailing bug in the Netherlands, encouraged by us, and is now taking much overdue holidays on a quest to complete her RYA [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Taste of Luxury &#8211; Sailing on &#8216;Lion King&#8217;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The wonderful thing about sailing is that there is something for everyone! At one extreme you have the thrill of racing or dinghy sailing (both of which involve a certain amount of discomfort and getting wet!) while at the other end of the spectrum you can sail on a luxury cruising yacht and be looked [...]]]></description>

		<title>What&#8217;s the weather going to be like?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Our clients often ask me what weather they can expect during a particular month. Recent times have seen changes in the weather in Greece, like everywhere on the planet. It’s not as predictable as it was 20 years ago. As sailors you&#8217;ll be interested in both temperature and wind but in this post I’ve only covered temperatures. I’ll [...]]]></description>

		<title>RYA or ASA course? What&#8217;s the difference?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The RYA (Royal Yachting Association) and the ASA (American Sailing Association) are the two most well-known organisations in sail training. They are a little different in size and scope as I explain later in this article.

		<title>Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8230; or so they say. In which case I guess we should be flattered that a competitor sailing school tried to imitate our website and even copied segments of text. Athens Sailing Academy&#8217;s latest website contained pages with some almost identical copy to ours. And, to top it all, they were offering to supply a [...]]]></description>
