Because the ship ran aground off the present-day site of Môle Saint-Nicolas, Haiti on December 25, 1492, and was lost. Timbers from the ship were later used to build Môle Saint-Nicolas, which was originally called La Navidad (Christmas) because the wreck occurred on Christmas Day.

The three ships that came to shore were the Niña, the Pinta, and the Santa María, which were part of Christopher Columbus's expedition in 1492. The Santa María was the largest of the three and served as Columbus's flagship, while the Niña and Pinta were smaller caravels. Upon reaching the New World, only the Niña and Pinta returned to Spain, as the Santa María was wrecked on the shores of Hispaniola.
I'm assuming you mean on his first voyage? He sailed out on the Santa Maria, but on the return trek the Santa Maria was wrecked, and he had to return on the Nina. Hope that helps.Actually, Christopher Columbus sailed to America with more than one ship. He traveled in three ships. The three ships names are called Nina, Pinta, and Santa Maria.He sailed to America with 3 ships The Nina,The Pinta and his own ship the Santa Maria. So he sailed on Santa Maria.Christopher Columbus sailed with 3 ships: the nina, the santa maria and the pinta.Hewent to North America in the santa maria, but it sank so he returned in the nina.
The Pinta, the Nina, and the Santa Maria all left with full crews. The Santa Maria sank out at a Haitian bay, right in front of today's "Mole Saint-Nicolas", founded by Columbus himself as "La Navidad". The other ships returned safely back to Spain, with Columbus traveling on the Nina. The Nina made several other trips under Columbus and the last log of her is from 1501, on a trip to the "Pearl Coast", today's Venezuela's East Coast. Little is known about the fate of the Pinta after the famous trip.
