Makes sense... not to me, but it must make sense to someone.

Well, I think they should demonstrate it is possible, not by building a full size mock-up, but by building a full size boat, out of wood, using period techniques. It should, of course, be built by a single man, but I'd be happy with an entire construction team. They can then demonstrate the truth of the story by placing it in the ocean, and loading two of every animal into it, along with all the food and supplies needed for the animals and the eight person crew.
I can't think of any reason it wouldn't work...
And if it doesn't someone can at least film it and make it a new History Channel show.
