The Galilee Boat



Today we started our travels by visiting the site of the Galilee Boat. Discovered in 1986, the excavation and preservation of this 1st Century boat is a story in itself. Buried in the mud for two thousand years, the boat, which held thirteen, shows evidence of being patched and repaired many times. That Jesus spent so much of his ministry around this sea make you wonder whether he might have ridden in this one or just seen it in his travels. But, holds thirteen… Hmmmmm!
