Christopher Columbus, the one who sailed the ocean blue in fourteen hundred ninety two.

Wrong, the captain of the Santa Maria, ( La Santa Maria de la Concepcion to give her, her full name, it's Spanish for The Holy Mary of the Immaculate Conception), was her owner Juan de la Cosa.

Columbus's rank was Captain General of the Fleet, meaning he had overall control, but the day to day running of the ships was left to the captains.
