Decoration Boat - "Pinta" Columbas' Ship Office Gift Description:

La Pinta ("the painted one", "the spotted one") was the fastest of the three ships used by Christopher Columbus in his first voyage across the Atlantic Ocean in 1492. The New World was first sighted by Rodrigo de Triana on the Pinta on October 12, 1492.

"Pinta" Columbas' Ship  History:

Pinta was a caravel-type vessel. By tradition Spanish ships were named after saints and usually given nicknames. Thus, Pinta, like Niña, was not the ship's actual name. The actual name of the Pinta is unknown. The origin of the ship is disputed but is believed to have been built in Spain in the year 1441. It was later rebuilt for use by Christopher Columbus. Pinta was square rigged and was smaller than the Santa María, weighing approximately 60 tons with a length of 20 meters (66 feet) and a width of 7 meters (23 feet). The crew size was 26 men. Captain of the Pinta was Martín Alonso Pinzón.
