Noah's flood: What happened to all the other people who knew how to make boats? [Spirituality & Religion]

Like none of them managed to float on a boat with supplies? Seems like it'd be a lot easier for a couple or a family to survive with 40 days of supplies if you weren't filling your boat with all the animals.

What do you reckon?

I think the story of the flood is just that, a story. It doesn’t make a lot of sense 😀 There may have been a flood but most likely it was a local one and how did Noah collect all the animals 😀 the overwhelming majority wouldn’t have lived in Palestine so how did they get there

Why?

@GodSpeed63 It’s a bit unlikely that there was a world wide flood, a local flood maybe.
Assuming that there were 2 of every animal what did Noah feed the animals on.
Everything on earth would have drowned, so how did they survive afterwards.
Where did all the wood come from to build the ark it must have been enormous
How did all the animals get to the Ark

Yeah i mean, the plants wouldn't have survived 150 days under water either so what do the herbivores have left to eat?
And with only a pair (or 7 in the case of livestock) of each herbivore around, the carnivore population would have immediately decimated their population.
If even on of the pair was killed then that "kind" is gone.
