The captain of the Gallega was Pedro de Terreros, who hadsailed with the Admiral as steward on all his other voyages and was nowpromoted to a command. The fourth ship was called the Vizcaina, fiftytons, and was commanded by Bartolome Fieschi, a friend of Columbus's fromGenoa, and a very sound, honourable man. There were altogether 143 soulson board the four caravels. The fleet as usual made the Canary Islands, where they arrived on the20th of May, and stopped for five days taking in wood and wa...ter and freshprovisions. Columbus was himself again--always more himself at sea thananywhere else; he was following a now familiar road that had nodifficulties or dangers for him; and there is no record of the voyage outexcept that it was quick and prosperous, with the trade wind blowing sosteadily that from the time they left the Canaries until they made landtwenty days later they had hardly to touch a sheet or a halliard. Thefirst land they made was the island of Martinique, where wood and waterwere taken in and the men sent ashore to wash their linen.
