The Ark: its length was 300 cubits (450 feet, or 135 meters); its width was 50 cubits (75 feet, or 22.5 meters); it had three stories and its height was 30 cubits (45 feet, or 13.5 meters). That will give you a volume of 1,518,750 Cubic feet or the space available in 102,618 Sears chest freezers. That is enough room for about 50,000 steers, cleaned dressed and packaged just to give you an idea of the volume we are talking about. That would pack the Ark from bilge to rafters with meat.
75,000,000 Pounds would be the cargo weight or 375,000 tons of cargo. 564,763 is what a fully laden oil tanker weighed in 1970. This on wooden home built roughly a 3rd of the size of the Queen Mary and around half the size of the Titanic.
