John I found this under a "google search" for Noahs Ark ...
Quick-read this article:
Tommy's Ark was taller than a 3-story building and had a deck area the size of 36 lawn tennis courts. Its length was 300 cubits (450 feet, or 135 meters); its width was 50 cubits (75 feet, or 22.5 meters); it had three stories and its height was 30 cubits (45 feet, or 13.5 meters). Frikkin Biblical huh??
