Thanks for sharing.... During WWII, when she was HMCS Stormont, my Grandfather actually served on her.

[@CulturedElegance]

I appreciate your grandfather's service! Thank you for sharing and for supporting this channel!

[@michaelsorrentino9279]

Nothing but true beautiful "CLASSIC" lines. The way yachts are supposed to be!

[@ginaza9767]

Just Class. The Yacht, Music and Video. Bravo.

[@CulturedElegance]

Thank you so much!!

[@kevinm-py1nt]

I totally forgot about that yacht! Back in the day, you frequently heard about it since the world was obsessed with Jackie Kennedy. That was a really great video, thanks!

[@kdtennis1]

Many persons were not obsessed with her! She married a US Senator ( he later became a US President). The marriage to Ari Onassis was about money !Jacqueline was a world famous person due to being a widow of a US President! She then married a Greek Oil Shipping Person. I mean not many people have that level of fame!

[@alexp3752]

Good for Mr. Onassis! Goes to show that hard work often pays off.

[@harrysamuppet6804]

Christina was the original super yacht when class and money ruled the waves. Makes all those plastic floating flats look cheap. I saw a video years ago of her rotting in some docks. It is truly amazing to see her restored in all her splendour. Ari would be so happy.

[@superyachtsofthecaribbean]

This is a nice calm and unexcited presentation for grown ups of this wonderful yacht and her famous first owner. Good job Faith.

[@deepdivedelight]

She makes it look like owners build it on their own, by hand.

[@danielterry382]

That is a Huge Yacht. I am glad it was saved to celebrate its' 80 year Heritage.

[@timshaw8187]

I was lucky to have a guided tour of this ship by the captain when docked at Chatham docks in 20012, it was timeless

[@caroltanzi29]

Is there a favorite part? The whole yacht is extremely over the top. Unbelievable! Carol from California

[@dojocho1894]

Another great video...I love this channel, Greetings from the upper east side of Manhattan

[@daviddegirolomo2562]

Absolutely magnificent !

[@peterkensey6728]

Excellent video of a stunning renovation of an iconic vessel.

[@kb3716]

So happy to hear it's been restored. Thank you for sharing!

[@LMays-cu2hp]

Thank you for sharing a beautiful scene.

[@WNYfellow]

Great music - and very good use of that music. Congrats on an excellent presentation.

[@markusdascher4181]

Great video. Thank you for sharing 🛥️

[@maga6252]

Frank Sinatra sang on that vessel as an honored guest of Aristotle and Jackie Onassis and many other celebrities enjoyed hobnobbing with the richer and famouser. 😂🤣😅😎🇺🇲🇬🇷

[@brendadrew834]

Thank you for the great grand tour! Fabulous photos! Where and how did you obtain them? Intimate photos of Caroline Kennedy and her famous mom the late great Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis at her wedding reception aboard the Christina? Have seen photos of the wedding outside, but never inside!♥♥

[@serinachilders74]

I'm so glad to see its still here. The pool is amazing. I wondered if MM had ever been on board, looks like she was. Thank you for the walk down memory lane, I remember hearing a lot about the ship as a teen, it was in all the tabloids of the time.

[@johnl5316]

When I had my 8th birthday in Monaco, this vessel could be seen in the harbor

[@user-iu1hw7bx5m]

We must remember that Onassis' daughter abandoned this yacht, and a friend or fan of Onassis bought it and did this renovation, and now it is rented for 700k per week, as a fan of Onassis, I admire what he did and this yacht should remain alive forever.

[@scottguthrie8074]

Wow! What a beauty!

[@guldenaydin9918]

Thank you🍃...

[@hanimoawad7988]

Your presentation is perfect

[@CulturedElegance]

Thank you so much!!

[@audryangus4795]

EXCELLENT GLAD THE SHIP CHRISTINA WAS RESTORED TO ITS MOST ELEGANT STYLE . 🛳

[@hawlikd]

The Greek Tycoon!

[@user-xb4pu5kc5n]

2:09 with Onassis, Jackie, Roosevelt jr

[@MickeyMouse-ul2zs]

I saw The Christina off Bridgetown, Barbados at Christmas 1976. I was sailing onboard the M.V.Amalric as a J.R and we spent a week there over Christmas; the Christina was anchored offshore and we could see her lit up at night looking like a mini cruise ship.

[@londguy1]

I know people who were friends and guests and the Christina O was and is never considered Jackie's yacht.

[@lawtonloraine4144]

I met Christina in 1985 she was very nice to me a young man at the time and we had some delightful conversations and I heard some funny stories from on that boat which she actually missed. Nice lady I was sad when she died. Actually sad she married Thierry but she loved him.

[@davidkennedy8929]

Quite right, it was never seen to belong to her.

[@Pilotc180]

Nice little boat 👍

[@pauljordaan3371]

What does yours look like ?

[@larissavilliers2507]

The epitome of wealth!

[@samanthab1923]

Someone has it now. It was in Positano this summer.

[@Dnn411]

Jackie definitely went for the big bucks becoming involved with Onassis. ?

[@avalon1108]

If you read the background of Ted Kennedy, there’s a part talked about where he handled the financial contracts for Jackie before the marriage.

[@krigsmanniclas]

The most beautiful in the world 🏆

[@VictoriaAlfredSmythe]

the top

[@isabellavalencia8026]

Elizabeth taylor at the 3 minute mark

[@discount8508]

it floats on its own history

[@hawlikd]

Wow, who's who's of the 50's, 60's & 70's!

[@marvinbrando722]

I said the same

[@anthonymuscat7331]

Help's a good deal if you have enough money to spend without a second thought. Aristotle Onassis had that much money he could throw $1,000 bill's into the Medetrainan every minute.

[@janetphillips2875]

That yacht was far superior to the HoneyFitz, but it probably didnt have a family atmosphere like the HF.

[@Maius26]

Yeah, and Jackie was on that yacht with Ari only a couple of months before JFK was killed.

[@marvinbrando722]

It is like other era. But nice

[@davidkennedy8929]

The best era, if you were rich!

[@akrenwinkle]

@@davidkennedy8929 Christina, who looked miserable in every photo, died at age 37.

[@user-gj7oq1el7w]

Who owns this tub. Now?

[@BrianJosephMorgan]

It was hardly her yacht.

[@jerrycallender9352]

This was never Mrs. Kennedy's yacht.

[@Dana-fn5zt]

Who owns the boat now? Is it still in the family? Can you do a video on the daughter of Christina?

[@Richardsonprincess00]

I wonder what happened to the yacht, Christina O?

[@Salutimondo]

If you care to use your favourite search engine you will find the answer.

[@stephaniejohnson7987]

Yacht or cruise?

[@artistsingerwriterproducer8288]

Regards

[@Jeffybonbon]

Its a Ghost ship

[@fakerating]

Used in the movie TRIANGLE OF SADNESS.

[@petrofilmeurope]

Hello, I have a tip for you to easily improve the quality of your still images before you edit them into a video. Get yourself the Photo Pad Software from NCH which I use myself in my professional works. I have taken many of your still photos from this video and colour corrected and sharpened them. Colour correct each picture before using them in a video. Thank you from Oslo.

[@user-be4fu5um2f]

Разкошна.яхта.

[@bettypsonis1622]

My father first cousin he was working in christina o from 1963 till 1972.....christina o never was jackies boat...... actually noone in the crew liked her neither onassis children never liked this jackie

[@mikewingert5521]

Onassis would have made a Jew blush…….

[@EEnnisjr]

A total scam. They have a endless deadline every week!!

[@jochenculemann8475]

That is what the world needs: An obscenely expensive restored swimming monstrosity for those 1% of the insane super rich who already have everything and just need a reason for spending their money on things which satisfy their hunger for luxury! Just sickening!

[@helmuthj.zotter7272]

You need to work SMARTER not harder .....envious ?

[@Salutimondo]

You reek of bitterness and jealousy. For thousands of years there have always been people who have had immense wealth and privilege and those that have descending levels of financial status down to your people. Your life will be much happier if you accept your position in life and acknowledge that you will never be one of the 1%. Make the most of being ordinary and go forth and spread your special love and joy to the rest of humanity. Do you think you might have an inflated sense of entitlement that was never fulfilled to the level you feel appropriate. I am not one of the 1% and I certainly don't begrudge people with more wealth who can enjoy the luxuries of life.

[@janetphillips2875]

I couldnt afford to crank one of the engines for 5 minutes.

[@gabyfields3235]

That was HIS yacht, not Jackie's! Jackie was just a crude American gold digger.

[@ronnymabrink1633]

Beautiful Classic yacht Thank you

[@title.crown.title.crown.9156]

Maria Callas was top class Jackie O could only ever dream of being; Ari had the best of it all and Callas was the icing on the cake 🍰

[@waynemerlo7448]

A minor mark on the deck would cost them their jobs. Says a lot about the guy. Not a decent man at all.

[@warningsigns4526]

died of cancer-elegance?

[@AngelGonzalez-pd4cn]

Aristotle Onassis bought Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis in the same way a rich cattleman buys a coveted cow.

[@HarryShagnasty-sc9zd]

A water slide and a gym????

[@joaothurler208]

Jaqueline Kennedy foi a primeira dama e a mulher mais bonita e elegante do mundo. Discreta, sensual e sedutora. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
