Jack and Mary Jagt are retired from the work of trading in natural rubber (Jack) and Intensive Care Nursing (Mary). They love to travel in their RV - nicknamed the Merrie Yacht. Recently moved from the home they raised their family in to a condo in a smaller town, they now have fewer home responsibilities and hope to be on the road more often.

In the mid 1980s, a man was walking on the shores of the Sea of Galilee in the area of the Kibbutz Ginnosar,when he found a long nail buried in the mud. He began digging and eventually unearthed this boat that was dated to the first century AD. It is in the traditional shape that fishermen used at that time. After many years of preservation work it is now on display at the museum. Is it the "Jesus Boat" or a boat used by fishermen on the Sea of Galilee? What do you think?
