It's a good article. Gets into a detailed analysis of why the story is impossible. Then again, if the Abrahamic God can do anything, including suspension of al known laws of physics...
I always recall a thread -discussion on this matter with Eusebius which was very interesting as he played by one rule - the only one I ever got him to accept - you could not waive your problems away with a magic wand. Once God did a miracle, the whole thing became needless. So he had to come up with a provable feasibility hypothesis for making the Ark math stack up.
Now, Eusebius would disagree with you there. The story would suggest that shipbuilding was a known art up to fairly big size already. I can assure you that Eusebius already had Noah as a real Bronze age Da Vincent - shipwright, ferro -metallurgist, food preservation expert, bilionaire businessman, vetinary savant.. lucky he didn't have to propose that he invented it all in the first place.
I suggest that in this respect he has shown more savvy that you have and I suggest you go away and have another think.

Hmmm, don't know if I should take the bait or not. :-)
