Re: Dutchman Builds A Huge Replica of Noah's Ark
Fortunately for his passengers he didn't actually replicate "Noah's Ark" from the Bible Story. This "modern day ark" was constructed with a rigid steel framework and a partial steel hull.
An entirely wooden vessel made to the literal dimensions given in Genesis would be swamped and torn apart just by the wave action on the open sea. It's impossible to get a wooden vessel certified if it's over 300 feet. Wood isn't a rigid enough material across those lengths.
