Yea, right, so how did those animals fish birds and clowns survive the
flood? Inquiring minds want to know. I heard the ark was powered by
twin Evinrude 200 hp outboards..any truth to that? I'd say it would
have to be a inboard with a big propeller just to get it to move.What
say you!

Let me guess. it was floating in Ron Schomperts pond or was it in
Jan Jordans pond......... praise jesus, yes praise jesus and pass
mashed ptatoes please........praise Jesus let us be thankfull we have
such fine preachers like Ron Schompert even if he is a hipocrite.

It is floating in the habor of Schagen, the Netherlands.

Ya. not quite. It's 1/5 scale and has a steel frame. It's really just
an enormous aquarium ornament.

The owner has plans to build a real 1 to 1 scale ark.
But, without the steel it cannot float. :-)
How dit Noah that?

Wood Ships can float if they are designed to float. The most famous wood
ship was called the Mayflower. That famous ship carried the Pilgrims to
America in 1620. Noah's Ark was also made out of wood.

There is a size limit on wooden ships due to leaking between the
planks. If you made a wooden ship the size of Noah's ark it would
sink pretty quickly even in a calm sea. Now imagine such a ship in an
ocean, with waves that had been driven by a wind fetch that extended
all the way around the world (and then some!) The ark would be unable
to flex with waves in a normal sea, but in a sea the size of the
entire world it would not last ten minutes.

I think the most famous wooden ships are the Nina, the Pinta, and the
Santa Maria, but it is arguable.
