La Nina Model Boat Kit. La Nina is a caravel made famous after its participation in the first voyage of Christopher Columbus, when he journeyed to the West Indies in 1492. The name’La Nina’ means the girl in Spanish, but this was a nickname for the boat, her real name being Santa Clara. The nickname’La Nina’ was supposedly a joke amongst sea mates, which intended to mock to her owner, Juan Nino. It is reportedly said that La Nina, out of the 3, was the favourite of Columbus. La Nina boat kit is manufactured by Mantua Model Group. They have been recognised by many for offering high quality model boat kits, using laser technology to accurately cut out pieces.

The real name of the Nina was Santa Clara. The name Nina was probably a pun on the name of her owner, Juan Niño of Moguer. She was a standard caravel-type vessel. The Niña was by far Columbus’s favorite. She was originally lateen sail rigged caravela latina, but she was re-rigged as caravela redonda at Azores with square sails for better ocean performance. There is no authentic documentation on the specifics of the Nina’s design, although Michele de Cuneo, who accompanied Columbus on his second voyage, mentioned that the Nina was “about 60 toneladas” (60 tons), which may indicate a medium sized Caravel of around 50 feet (15 m) in length on deck. [1] Often said to have had three masts, there is some evidence she may have had four masts. The Nina, Pinta, and the Santa María were built to sail the Mediterranean sea, not the open ocean. The Peter von Danzig of the Hanseatic League was built in 1462 and was 51 m (167.3 ft) long. Clothing, Shoes & Accessories. , it will probably take longer.
