A Giant Replica Of Noah's Ark In Ipswich by Kingspin(m): 6:59pm On Jun 05, 2021
A giant replica of Noah's Ark has been deemed unseaworthy and detained where it is docked.

The 70m-long (230ft) ship, which has been transformed into a floating museum, arrived in Ipswich in 2019.

In response to a Freedom of Information request made by the East Anglian Daily Times, the Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) said the vessel was not safe to leave due to "deficiencies".

The BBC has approached the ship's owner for comment.

The ship was bought for €3m (£2.6m) and its owner, Dutch TV and theatre producer Aad Peters, previously said he wanted to create a "talking point" for people from all backgrounds.

It houses wooden sculptures depicting Bible stories, including Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel as well as the nativity scene.

A spokesman for the MCA said: "The vessel, Noah's Ark will remain detained until all the deficiencies have been put right and a Maritime and Coastguard Agency surveyor is invited back by the owners to check that they have been corrected."

He said he was unable to disclose specific details of the deficiencies.

Adam and Eve sculptures have been carved out of wood.

Mr Peters bought the ark in 2010 and a team of 50 expert craftsmen took five months to create the museum, thought to be about half the size of the ark described in the Bible.

I have been in a ship before
That's not massive at all. Noah's ark would have been bigger than that with some advanced features

If you think this is huge you should see modern day cruise ships or oil tankers.

You were probably in a small ship. Modern day cruise ships are more than 4 times the volume of the supposed Noah's ark.

Noah's ark was the means God decided to use to save humanity in the days of Noah. Despite Noah's invitation to the people to come into ark, they refused, laughed at him , scorned at him and called all sort of names.

It's great and awesome to have a replica of Noah's ark but we must understand that the Noah ark of today is JESUS CHRIST. HE is the Only means through which we will be Saved from the Wrath to come.

Just as in the days of Noah, many are laughing, mocking and scorning at the Preachers.
Folks! Stop everything you are doing and get on the ark. The ark is JESUS Christ.
There is no other means to be Saved..

The point i was making is that based on what they built, it should be bigger that that. The ship i was on is actually a cruise ship.
