Wow, you’re right. “It was built approximately to scale, however is 1/2 the length and 1/3 the width of the Biblical dimensions.” That’s a lot more cubits and cubicles.

Technically, if you do the math, since it is half the length (2) and 1/3 the width (3).... 2x3 = 6.

It is therefore 6 times smaller a model or a 1/6th scale model.

The real copy being built by the creationist guys will be 600% larger than the one in Holland.

Amazing. Thanks for doing the math. Even the smaller one, it's hard to imagine how it could survive a storm, how it was built using primitive methods and materials. Noah probably had supernatural guidance along the way and protection during the 40 days.

So many questions about it in modern times but Jesus talked like it was literally true, same as Jonah.

With modern power tools it took over 300 man-years of labor to build each of the Ark 'replicas'.
