The Christina O
|
|
|
The mere mention of the name Onassis conjures
images of wealth, prestige and elegance of the M/Y CHRISTINA O, more
than anything else, it encapsulates the legend that was Aristotle
Onassis. This magnificent vessel, the definitive mega yacht of the jet
set era now returns to create history once again and define a new
category in luxury yachting. CHRISTINA O has fabulous areas for entertaining, including a sumptuous dining room capable of seating up to 40 guests. Her exterior amenities include the famous swimming pool which converts to a dance floor, a large Jacuzzi and extensive sunbathing decks. Up to 250 guests can be entertained on her canopied decks for the ultimate event. In 1998, the yacht was purchased by shipping
industry leader John Paul Papanicolaou, an Onassis family friend. With
meticulous research, engineering and craftsmanship, he began a three
year restoration of the vessel. Upon completion, Mr. Papanicolaou stated
"We're thrilled to reintroduce the fabled Christina O in all her
original splendor. Having been a passenger aboard the yacht in my youth,
I feel a special pride in bringing her forth to sail into the new
millennium. The extent and attention to detail of her restoration would
make Onassis proud." Now, after more than a quarter-century, the yacht
returns to sail into a new millennium in her original grandeur
complemented by today's latest technology. |
