(CNN) – The iconic personal style of Jacqueline Kennedy Onbadis is always borrowed by fashionistas around the world.
And as long as they're rich enough to pay for it, fans can also borrow Jackie O's old yacht.
The Christina O was bought from the Canadian government by Jackie's second husband, the Greek magnate Aristotle Onbadis, in 1954. Onbadis renamed the yacht "Christina" in honor of her daughter. It was later renamed "Christina O" by another owner following the death of Onbadis.

In addition to the famous previous owners, many of the most prominent personalities of the twentieth century were invited aboard the Christina O.
Winston Churchill, ballerina Margot Fonteyn, John Wayne, Maria Callas and Marilyn Monroe have all been invited aboard the yacht over the years, and the wedding reception of Prince Rainier and Grace Kelly from Monaco took place on board.
You will be entertained with a backgammon, a library filled with books or an evening around the piano on board.
The interiors are mostly pale, muted colors, with the exception of the cobalt blue elements of the astonishing spiral staircase. It is not yet clear whether the yacht has a "Overboard" style swivel shoe closet.
The spiral staircase is one of the central elements of yacht design.

The price is also high. The absolute lowest rate for a charter is 560,000 euros (636,000 USD) per week in low season in summer. During the high winter season, this number rises to 700,000 euros.
And these rates do not include the $ 20,000 ($ 27,000) security deposit or the Advanced Provisioning Account (APA) fee, which goes to yacht extras such as fuel, food and beverages.
