How big can a wooden boat get?

Question

Can you build a wooden boat the same size as, say, the Titanic?

Answer 1

well i would imagine pretty big...Noah had to fit lots of animals on the arc

Answer 2

Im sure you could as long as your reinforced it properly.  You would just have to have a lot more support sections all over the place than you would say with a steel boat because the strength builds on itself.  If you think about it you can't make a really thin steel boat so as any solid will work just more support is needed based on strength of material.

I hope that helps it was quite bad explaining.

Also you obviously wouldn't have an engine etc.  It would be quite impractical.

Answer 3

probly but why the h**l whould you want to if you take it out in the middle of the ocean the waves would tear the boat apart

Answer 4

how much wood you got?
