Christina

The Christinas

The early Christinas were built on Huntress hull shells and they are noted on the Huntress page. It is believed that there were 19 Fairey moulded hulls built into Christinas.

The later Christina hulls were built elsewhere and therefore have Campbell hull numbers. However, hull number records were not their strong point, hence the confusion.

If you own a Christina, please check both this listing and the early Huntress hulls for your boat.

Below we have the various Christinas we know of. All new information regarding location, history and ownership will be gratefully received.

The Christina development is very well covered in Charles Lawrence's book Bruce Campbell: From Albatross to Christina
