Sail and Mast by D Hackett
The Nina
The Niña is a replica of the ship on which Columbus sailed across the Atlantic on his three voyages of discovery to the new world beginning in 1492. Columbus sailed the tiny ship over 25,000 miles. That ship was last heard of in 1501, but the new Niña has a different mission. We are a floating museum, and we visit ports all over the Western Hemisphere.
Deck length 65 ft
Beam ft
Draft – 7 ft
Tonnage 75
Sail Area 1919 sq ft
The ship is black because it is covered with pine tar, which is a water resistant.
Pinta
Pinta was recently built in Brazil to accompany the Nina on all of her travels. The Pinta was built 15 feet longer and 8 feet wider than the original, so she can accommodate more people, and be used for dockside charters/events. She is a larger version of the archetypal caravel and offers larger deck space for walk-aboard tours and has a 40 ft air conditioned main cabin down below with seating. Pinta is available for private parties and charters.
