Best Answer

The names of the ships were the Niña and the Pinta, but I'm not sure about the brothers. It sounds intriguing, though, and I hope someone comes through with an answer. My bet is that they were from Spain, though, because most, if not all, of Columbus' crews were from Spain, where he lived most of his adult life. His only descendants, to this day, are Spaniards. He was, after all, sailing for Spain.

The two brothers that commanded the Nina and the Pinta were Vicente Pinzon and Martin Alonso Pinzon. Vicente Pinzon commanded the Nina and Martin Pinzon was the captain of the Pinta. They accompanied Christopher Columbus on his voyage to the New World in 1492.
