Life-Size Noah's Ark Replica May Sail to Israel

A Dutch businessman who built a life-size replica of Noah's Ark now  hopes to sail the mighty vessel to Israel. Johan Huibers made headlines  back in 2012 when he completed his quest to create a modern version of  the legendary ship using the precise specifications laid out in the  Bible. Aiming to show that such a feat could be accomplished, he spent  around $5 million over the course of four years to complete the  monumental task.

Since finishing the project, Huibers told the Jewish Telegraph Agency,  the 390-foot-long ship which boasts a height of 75 feet has become a  bit problematic in his native Netherlands. The vessel had a brief run as  a tourist attraction featuring a petting zoo and drawing visitors from  around the world, but was soon shut down by officials in the community  where the ship is moored. Although they cited safety concerns as the  reason, Huibers theorized that their decision was actually because some  "very strict individuals consider it a forbidden depiction of God’s  image."

In response, Huibers has decided to revive his original plan from when he first built the ship and sail it to Israel. Find out how he plans to pull this off at the Coast to Coast AM website.
