The photos below are of the first launch after Christina's restoration. This restoration was a bit difficult, needing a full strip back and sand to bare wood, re stain and varnish all decks and interior however the boat needed to be back in the water 8 days after it came out, so that it could make a wedding, giving us what most thought was an impossible task, however achieved with an hour to spare.
Christina is most famously known for featuring in The Grand Tour, skippered by James May where it was put through its paces, and then later seen on screens in The boys in the boat. Although she has seen her fair share of abuse on TV, she is now restored back to her former glory with only a few bits to sort over the winter, and available for charter as well as film and TV work through Luxe boats.
