I have no problem with a ship or two being blown off course in a storm and riding the currents to South America.

That is well within the realms of possibility. After all, 30 days on ship and the Phoenicians, Romans, Vikings would have landed in the Americas. Getting back is another question. only Columbus did that (he was also the only one with a good PR manager back home....)

Plus Columbus could write about his travels, the Vikings only told stories.
