Niña, or the little one, is the ship that housed Christopher Columbus’s cabin. At the beginning, she featured the characteristic Latin sails, but afterwards she was equipped with square sails. Being a small size caravel, such as the Pinta was, she was very agile in the manoeuvers, but she need a remarkable ballast to withstand the stormy sea. Niña is a milestone in the history of sailing and of the whole humanity.
