Sorry Rev, it physically can't: wooden ships less large than the ark was purported to be- with the benefit of iron braces, I might add, and sailed in tranquil weather- proved to be not seaworthy. Wood simply isn't structurally capable of that; it flexes and separates and eventually floods.
For further information, check how many of the ships substantially over three hundred feet long have the word "sunk" in their eventual fate. The ark is purported to be substantially larger than all of them, made of inferior materials, operating for a longer period of uninterrupted sailing with no hope of repair, in conditions far worse than those that sank every ship smaller than it.
The ark would not float.
