From a page on viking ship building, and I can bet you any viking ship is going to be better built than the piece of crap modern arks, and definitely a lot better than some fucktarded delusional jew living in the dessert could build in a week:

Sometimes, parts would be held together with Trenails, wooden pins that were split and wedged to hold them in place. As iron was as expensive in those days as silver is to us today, Trenails, which are 'wooden rivets' are employed in many areas of the hull. They are simply wooden dowels that are driven into previously bored holes through the component pieces. Then at either end of the dowel, a small split is started, into which a small wedge is also driven. This locks the trenail in place, neither being able to work it's way forward or back. There is some research that has shown that if the parts of the 'nail' are boiled in Linseed oil prior to being assembled, after which they will remain locked together almost indefinitely. The Slavic tradition of Viking ship building such as from Northern Poland owes a lot to the trenail, and less to the use of iron. Whereas in the western half of the Viking world, it is the other way round.
