I would love to have the ark as a mod for Silent Hunter:
"Kapitän, ship sighted, heading Mount Ararat."
"Rohr 1-4, FEUER!" :D

I don't see how building a big boat would either confirm or refute the biblical story of Noah
Well it would help the unemployment rate. The teamsters would like to be a part as well. However the tree huggers might not care for the killing of trees needlessly. Oh well, can't win them all.

Well, he had to do it carefully, else it turns into a bobsled.

Kinda like this:

But with a whole bunch of pissed off animals rampaging behind you.

Hard to port Ham! HARD TO PORT! We're going down!!! BLOW BALLAST!

Could you imagine the renown hit you would take for sinking the ark sailing under god's orders?

When I was a kid I would have loved to seen an Ark, even if I had known it was only a representation. Might help if they keep live giraffes and such there... make it a zoo so it smells like an animal hold. "Two of everything" might be a bit to accommodate for, unless they plan on expanding to the size of who-knows-what. :DL

Although not necessarily the dumbest thing I have ever heard of, this ark business sits very high in the top three...

Oddly enough the other contenders both involve religion. Go figure.

It was a bugger of a patrol, obviously being in the very beginning it was vanilla so the weather was terrible. 40 days and 40 nights and I could't see a single ship through the downpour.

Then behold like a miracle the ark appeared, but no one told me at torpedo school that gopher wood is no good for magnetics:o

I managed a second attempt with impacts a blew the holy bejesus(continuity error) out of the side but it appears noah moved all the dinosaurs to the other side of the ship create such a heel that the holes were out of the water.
Luckily for them God had put in some extra instuctions in a lost chapter of the book of noah which told him to bring spare gopher wood to repair any holes from torps(being all knowing of course), so his sons did that while the women lightened the load by jettisoning the dinosaur excrement with the divine pooper scoopers and the ship was able to sail to a dozen locations in Turkey a few in Iran Armenia, Ethiopia and possibly even Utah

It was at this point in the patrol that I finally realised the slogan "Gott mit uns" was bollox as he was obviously on the other side

:har:

After Tribesman's sinking of the ark the allied trinity declared war agianst the United States of Subsimmers.
Also the BdU, Onkel Neal, issued the order not to rescue any survivors any more - especially no hippos!

Sure it must impress you SH players but us Dangerous Waters players are not impressed. Displacment of the Ark 22,000 tons, displacement of Nimitz class Aircraft Carrier 106,300 tons.

That gave me the laugh I needed today. :DL

"We see a full-scale, wooden bridge set as something so significant that it will shake up this nation," Ham said. "It would be a clear reminder to America about the truths of Star Trek. The building of a huge bridge is a unique and powerful opportunity to reach millions in our nation (and around the world) with a bold statement: Roddenberry's word is true."
