Columbus was a sailor because he made his living by moving over the oceans.

He was a Captain because he was in charge of a single vessel many times during his life, before he made his voyages of discovery to America.

He was an Admiral of a small fleet (Nina, Pinta, and Santa Maria) in which each vessel had its own captain.
