Yacht Christina of Aristotle Onassis with Italian twin-engine amphibian flying boat HB-LAV Piaggio P-136L-2. Monaco harbor 1956.

Aristotle Onassis’s yacht, the *Christina*, is moored in Monaco harbor in 1956. On its upper deck rests an Italian twin-engine Piaggio P-136L-2 amphibian flying boat with the Swiss registration HB-LAV. The yacht’s stern, flying an American flag, features a spacious, awning-covered deck with tables and chairs. Below the vessel’s name, the letters 'Y.C.M.' are inscribed for the Yacht Club de Monaco. The densely built-up hillside of the principality provides the backdrop.
