the answer to this queston (which you don't know) is Amerigo Vespucci. 25 years before Columbus.

Well, he would have to been a child prodigy then, he would have been aged thirteen or fourteen in 1467.

Vespucci made his first voyage in 1499, some seven years after Columbus. Anyway, it is known that Vikings were there some 500 years before Columbus, but there is now evidence that Irish monks actually sailed the Atlantic 200 years before them.
