No yacht embodies the golden age of glamour and mystery quite like CHRISTINA O. Styled in the early 1950s by Caesar Pinnau and transformed by Greek shipping magnate Aristotle Onassis from a WWII anti-submarine vessel into one of the world’s most iconic superyachts, she is steeped in stories that shaped the 20th century, and offers the ultimate stage for a live-action mystery at sea.
Originally purchased at scrap value and refitted for what would now equate to over $50 million, she became a floating palace that played host to Hollywood royalty, political leaders and world-changing conversations. Marilyn Monroe, Grace Kelly, John Wayne and Elizabeth Taylor all walked her teak decks, while Winston Churchill and John F. Kennedy famously shared their first meeting in Ari’s Bar, a space now perfectly suited to whispered clues, covert encounters and unexpected revelations.
