Overview
The CHRISTINA was originally launched in 1997 as My Lynn and has been continually updated by her current owner. She features a Jack Hopewell Tower, master stateroom forward with ensuite head and full shower, a guest stateroom to port as well as crew quarters with over/under bunks to starboard and full head. The interior is classic Merritt teak throughout with many upgrades. A new teak deck and full mezzanine with new refrigeration and dual freezers was installed in 2018. The bridge was upgraded in 2022-23 with new electronics varnish stripped and refinished. All exterior varnish was stripped and refinished in 2022 as well as full paint job at Merritt’s in 2019. In 2002 both engines were rebuilt by a Caterpillar dealer with 2015 hours on them.
