There's a replica of the Santa Maria here in Columbus
Is it always there? I have seen a replica years ago......in Cape Giradeau MO on the Mississippi River, passing through. It was quite fascinating. I am assuming it is the same boat.

Would you trust this guy to build an Ark?

Has a serious design analysis been done for Noah's ark?
The point about structural members taking up a lot of needed space is good, as well as the point that leaks would sprout and have to be taken care of immediately.
The Society has always stated that the ark didn't need to be a ship or boat, it only had to float for a year.

VM44, check out the talk.origins page on problems with a global flood at http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/faq-noahs-ark.html. It has a very brief section on the ark (nothing that hasn't already been mentioned here) but it illustrates many, many other problems with the tale.
Funny, though... It feels like someone writing a treatise on why Little Red Riding Hood is impossible. It should be obvious. It's too bad people have to write this stuff.

But despite all the sound reasoning on why it could not be possible to construct and maintain an ark of those porportions for that length of time.....
It won't matter one whit to the JWs cause JEHOVAH WOULD MAAAAAGICALLY TAKE CARE OF ANY POSSIBLE PROBLEM THAT COULD EVER CROP UP.
If they actually even ever responded to REASON, perhaps our arguments might make sense.
There's no reasoning with these people.

You would think the WT Society could sponsor an Ark quick build project just to prove it can be built with copper axes and flint/stone tool technology.

I've never understood the reasoning behing believing that God held the ark together with holy spirit, or intervened to make any of the rest of the story possible. If God was going to intervene, why wouldn't he just make the bad guys wake up dead? If you have to perform a hundred miracles to make something happen, why not just perform one miracle and get it over with?
