Fair representation? The ship was built using materials and techniques unavailable to Noah! It literally is not the same kind of ship that the ark would have been! How is a ship with a metal hull a "fair representation" of a purely wooden ship?!
Moreover, you're missing the point entirely: a purely wooden ship of that size would sink. An iron reinforced ship of that size would sink, or tear itself apart, we know that for a fact. If you want to claim this is an okay representation wouldn't you then have to admit that the only reason this ship stays afloat is because it has an iron hull? And that hull was unavailable to Noah, therefore making his ark physically impossible?
And that's me being very kind to you. You don't get to cheat, Snowy. This replica isn't anything like the original ark in terms of construction, and you don't just get to pretend that it is because it's convenient for your rapidly crumbling argument.
