When does a yacht become more than a yacht?
Christina O is very special. She has a history intertwined with the unique story of Aristotle Onassis, Maria Callas, Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy (Jackie O), Sir Winston Churchill, JFK, and many of the most important people of the 20 th Century. A powerful story that you instantly feel connected to when you go on board.
The famous Ari’s Bar on board Christina O is unchanged from the day in 1956 when Ari Onassis took delivery of the most impressive superyacht anybody had ever seen, and you can enjoy cocktails in the bar sitting on the same famous bar stools.

The outside bar on Christina O is still to this day better than any outside bar on any modern yacht of any size. We challenge you to suggest a better one!
The famous pool with a recreation of Minoan art on its mosaic floor (lovingly restored) is the same one that was specified by Onassis. Even more remarkable the mechanism that raises and lowers this huge mosaic floor is still the same mechanism from 1956, and still works perfectly.
The pool can be filled and emptied quickly compared to modern yachts, and when not being used, the floor being in the raised position means that the prime real estate can be used rather than being a big empty (dangerous) hole! You will see that this Pool Deck space is used all the time for al-fresco dining, including the ever-popular BBQ evenings. The metal surround of the pool is original and needs polishing two or three times a day.

The Compass Deck forward of the famous yellow funnel has been renovated to create a new outside dining area, with shade and integrated lighting. The new teak on this deck matches the new teak on all the other decks – Christina O has never looked better in her many years as undisputed queen of superyachts.

Equally comfortable as a drawing room is the Jackie O Lounge, also called the Lapis Lounge with its incredible Lapis Lazuli fireplace, and self-playing piano. There are plenty of photos of how this room was used by Onassis as a place for his family gatherings and as a place for powerful people to get together and enjoy relaxed conversation. JFK met Sir Winston Churchill for the first time on this yacht, in Ari’s Bar. Churchill also met Tito for the first time in the Lapis Lounge.

The speed of Christina O is impressive. She was built as a frigate for chasing down U-Boats in World War II, and as such she needed to be able to reach 19 knots, which she can still do today thanks to her streamlined hull design and plenty of horsepower. Highly manoeuvrable as well with her twin screw propulsion. The engines and generators are relatively new, installed in 2001. She is equipped with a new Air Conditioning system.
