---->The Durupinar formation does not match the shape of the Biblical description of the Ark - which was a large, floating rectangular box. It did not have curved sides, or a shaped bow / stern.

Ark: 450ft long, 75ft wide, 45ft high. 3 stories tall with a door on the side. Also had a roof over it.

Compare with the ship/boat Edmund Fitzgerald: 729ft long, 75 ft wide, 39ft high. (and absolutely had ballast and a shaped bow)

Noah's ark "probably" looked a lot like the Edmund Fitzgerald with plenty of ballast (anchor/drogue) stones hanging off of it. They were cut as the waters receded and dry land appeared...ark came to rest.

More info from the internet.

Modern replicas — including Ark Encounter (Kentucky) and Johan’s Ark (Netherlands)

Using the commonly applied royal cubit (~20.4–20.6 inches), this yields:

≈510 ft long

≈85 ft wide

≈51 ft high

They don’t look like a barge. They look like a boat.

Hanging off?

I've yet to EVER hear of a ship like that!

Ballast goes in the BOTTOM, to keep the thing from CAPSIZING!
