CHRISTINA O — 99.1m Howaldtswerke for Sale in Greece
About this yacht
Steeped in history and legend, CHRISTINA O stands as one of the most iconic motor yachts ever launched. Built by Canadian Vickers in 1943 and meticulously refitted in 2015, this 99.13-metre vessel represents a unique confluence of historic significance and contemporary luxury. Originally commissioned by Aristotle Onassis, she has hosted some of the world's most influential figures—from Sir Winston Churchill and John F. Kennedy to Marilyn Monroe and Frank Sinatra—making her not merely a yacht, but a floating piece of cultural history.
The vessel's interior design, refined by Apostolos Molindris, captures an English country manor aesthetic that has been faithfully preserved while accommodating modern charter operations. She welcomes 34 guests across 17 generously appointed staterooms—comprising one master suite, two VIP cabins, seventeen double cabins, fourteen twin cabins, and fourteen convertible cabins—ensuring comfort for groups of varying sizes and configurations. A professional crew of 40 attends to every detail, including two full-time spa therapists and a culinary team capable of Michelin-starred cuisine.
The spaces aboard CHRISTINA O are designed for unparalleled entertaining. The signature Minoan art mosaic swimming pool ingeniously transforms into a dance floor, while a separately positioned Jacuzzi and expansive sun decks provide multiple venues for relaxation and socializing. The famous bar—historically the setting for pivotal diplomatic meetings—remains the social heart of the yacht, complemented by three additional public lounges, a games room, and the Jackie O Lounge featuring a striking Lapis Lazuli fireplace and self-playing piano. An impressive dining room accommodates up to 42 guests, while a fully equipped gymnasium and spa facilities address wellness needs.
The tender and toy collection befits her stature: two recently refitted Hacker Craft Prestige launches, a new RIB tender, sports tenders, jetskis, kayaks, paddleboards, and comprehensive snorkelling equipment. CHRISTINA O cruises at 19 knots, facilitating seamless transit between Mediterranean cruising grounds and Greek waters, where she is typically based.
Available for charter at €700,000–€740,000 per week, CHRISTINA O offers a rare opportunity to experience legendary luxury and authentic historical character combined with the amenities expected of a world-class charter vessel.
