A SUPERYACHT, whose guests range from Winston Churchill and US President John F Kennedy to Heidi Klum and Frank Sinatra, is on sale for a whopping £70million.

The regal Christina O has also appeared on the big screen, featured in the hit royal TV show The Crown, and is the 59th largest yacht in the world as of 2022.

Once a military boat which served in World War Two, the 325ft vessel has undergone various refurbishments to turn it into a unique luxury yacht. 

It boasts several one-of-a-kind designs, including a mosaic pool floor which elevates to become a dance floor, and bar stools made of whale penis foreskin.

The boat, which was bought by billionaire Greek shipowner Aristotle Onassis before he renovated it with £3million, has also hosted a long list of superstars and politicians. 

Former Prime Minister Winston Churchill, who boarded the ship for eight voyages, has his own library on the yacht called the Winston Churchill Library, which is the only suite named after a guest.

Churchill also made his first encounter with US President John F Kennedy on the Christina O.

The boat hosted the former US President and his wife Jackie Kennedy before JFK was assassinated in 1963.

But just five years later Ms Kennedy ended up marrying the yacht’s owner Aristotle Onassis who was 23 years older than her.

Prior to that, Onassis had an affair with opera legend Maria Callas on the yacht – who is just one on a long list of showbiz stars who have stayed on the Christina O.

Frank Sinatra, Elizabeth Taylor, John Wayne, Grace Kelly and Richard Burton all at one point have stayed on the ship.

In 2019, TV star Heidi Klum married Tom Kaulitz on board the ship.

The history of the yacht goes back to its maiden voyage in 1943, just  before it served as a crucial convoy escort during the Battle of the Atlantic and in the Normandy landings.

Onassis bought the vessel after the war, paying just £40,000, and named it after his daughter Christina before pumping a staggering £4million into its renovation.

The yacht then fell into the hands of the Greek government after Onassis died in 1975.

They left the vessel untouched for years until it was sold at auction in the early 1990s for just under £14million.

A £44million refurbish plan was once again undertaken in 2001 before it was snapped up for £60million.

Apart from starring in The Crown, the boat has been used in the 2022 film Triangle of Sadness, and the 2024 film Maria which is about Maria Callas’ life and stars Angelina Jolie as the renowned opera singer.

The Christina O currently belongs to a group of Irish investors, who are looking to sell the ship for £70million.

Before it was listed for sale, punters had the chance to live in the ship for a week for £545,000 during summer.
