Vincente saw the other two ships from the front of the boat, Columbus's who captained The Santa Marina, and his brother who captained The Pinta. He saw the two at the front of their boat, now he couldn't tell if the crew of men on the other ships was smiling with excitement, but he knew his men were doing just that. Calls of worshipping God for the safe seas sailing to this New World! Not much later, they had to get onto the lifeboats, for the ship was too enormous to go to land.
