A 230-foot long replica of Noah’s Ark collided with a Norwegian Coast Guard vessel as it arrived in Oslo, Norway on Friday, causing damage to both ships.

Media says the wooden replica, built by a Dutch carpenter Johan Huibers after he dreamed of a flood in his home town, was being towed into Oslo harbor when it somehow lost control and crashed into the moored patrol vessel Nornen.

Don’t tell BenLurkin.

[artichokegrower]

I guess he wasn’t very good at parallel arking

Hey, have some respect for a former Marine!

Hard to miss it in a marina. Stands out like a ‘62 Checker Cab in a line of new Ferraris.

I won't mention that they don't poop skittles either.

Uh-oh

[faithhopecharity]

well, at least we know the fish will survive today’s flood

[Husker8877]

That is gonna leave a ark.

She seriously affected my adolescence. Left me with a yearning, if you know what I mean.

I kindof liked the HVAC ducting in the charthouse. I dodn’t realized they had mechanical ventilation back in the day.

I’ve seen that at a dock on the Rhine River in Holland.

I saw it upstream at Koeln a few years ago near the Chocolate Museum. I think I have some pictures somewhere; I didn't buy the ticket and tour the thing.

She had a eunuch husband

Someone got her pregnant (just so they could bring abortion into the story line).

[Shanghai Dan]

Yes it is - I don’t see it! Is it hiding behind that barn?

[headstamp 2]

Haven’t had this much fun since my dad told me the story of when they almost ran into Truman’s yacht down in Key West back in ‘47.

[Carriage Hill]

Yes. The giraffe on the deck is a weather vane.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Well that’s a problem the original ark did not have.

[KarlInOhio]

..hope the animals are all OK..

The unicorns and the bigfoots didn't make it.

[Ann Archy]

My husband calls her Adrienne Bar TIT beau!!!

[Cvengr]

Paper mache?

Umm, wouldn’t it be easier to find a new town?

[Carriage Hill]

LOL. I can’t even imagine the acreage of newspaper piles it would take to make that thing out of pm. And the truckloads of flour for the paste, would stretch for miles.
