And a few thousand miles outside of its only known area of existence. Fantastic. Quite the theory they have there. Hell, if the early hebrew people were capable of building such a boat it's a wonder we don't all speak yiddish..lol.
Oh, it gets better. The Ark is described as some 400 feet long. I forget the exact length as it's in cubits but the conversion comes out to a size that would be impossible for an all wooden vessel. An ocean worthy vessel that size capable of staying afloat for 140 days would have to be made of metal.
