Cristina O

[Peter Thomson]

 I have seen Cristina O (the late Aristotle Onassis's boat) shown several times moored in Chatham docks. As I live next to the Medway in Gillingham and see most vessels coming and going I think this is unlightly. Plus, I dont think that given the vessels length and beam, that she would be able to enter the dock there. Has the site been Hacked?

I also have  here inside Chatham docks but that was last report on 12/5 1619Z.  Unless they have altered the size of the locks to enter the dockyard, then no problem re size.  There used to be cruisers WW2 similar to  Belfast size using the locks, and also HMS Triumph ( small aircraft carrier).

Don't know where Cristina O is now though.  Same was on my FleetMon system.

The correct spelling is Christina O, http://marinetraffic.com/ais/shipdetails.aspx?MMSI=353905000. Currently at Thamesport UK.

Yep correct spelling Christina O.  Does anybody know who owns this thing now????

Hi Iain,
If you look at the wikipedia entry you'll see all the blurb about Christina O - now owned by a family friend of the Onassis's - and available for charter, but I'm about 3d short this week so.....maybe next payday......:-))
I've seen her shown on this site as being in Chatcham docks again today (and yesterday) I posted a reply to you question but it didnt see to register - so if this comes out twice you'll know why. As for her being in Thamesport, I live by the river about 2NM from Thamesport and see all the vessels arriving and f she was one of them, I'd notice. Perhaps the confusion lies elsewhere - there is a tug based in Sheerness called 'Christine' , so perhaps her signal is being mistaken - and I dont think there'll be a que for chartering her....
I still think that the site must have been hacked, although why anyone should bother, I have no idea
Regards
Peter
