The flagship of Cristoforo Colombo's voyage across the Atlantic was the small nao/carrack Santa María. However, the ship was originally named La Gallega (the Galician), before being renamed to Santa María by Colombo himself. She was a small, three masted nao or carrack, with a length of 19m on deck, a keel length of 12m, and estimated at 108 tons burthen, and a displacement estimated at 150 tons. She had a beam of 5.5m and a draught of 3.2m. Despite being a quite small ship for her day, she was the largest of the three ships put under Colombo's command, with his other ships being two small caravels, the 15m long lateen-rigged caravel Santa Clara (nicknamed 'La Niña'), and a 17m long square-rigged round caravel whose proper name is not known, but was nicknamed 'La Pinta'.

The Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore
Probably the most famous explorer to have a vessel named the "Santa Maria" is none other than Christopher Columbus. He set forth to find the orient with three ships: the Santa Maria, the Nina and the Pinta. The Santa Maria was actually named after a town that was named after the Blessed Virgin Mary. The ship was fitted out in El Puerto de Santa Maria which is located on the Gaudalete River outlet in the Bay of Cadiz in Spain. This was the winter berth and base for the Royal Galleys of Spain in the 16th and 17th centuries. Columbus choose the Santa Maria as his flagship.
