Where did Christopher Columbus end up when his ship got wrecked in 1476?

Answer 1

He made a total of three voyages and they all were in the Bahamas. On his last one he was shipwrecked for over two years. The governor of Porto Rico knew he was there but refused to rescue him. He died soon after his rescue and his son filed suit against the Spanish crown to have them meet the terms of his contract with him. Columbus died sick and broke with a loss of his reputation as an explorer. He was a greedy mean minded man who would have been forgotten in history if the Italian American's hadn't wanted a holiday simular to the Irish St. Patrick Day, so they made the native of Spain an Italian and created a day in his name.

Answer 2

Assuming the trip of which you speak is the first voyage, Columbus first returned to known territory in February of 1493 when he visited the Portugeuse Azores. He initially was warmly welcomed, but later locals detained ten of Columbus' men and tried to make an arrest of Columbus. After much argument, Columbus left and anchored at another island. When Columbus returned, there had been a change of heart and the men were returned. After that, Columbus stopped over in Lisbon Portugul for over a week, then finally returned to Palos Spain.
