The vessel is dated to roughly 100 BCE–100 CE. Film and photographs explain the 1986 discovery and preservation. There is a playground on site. Searching Ginosaur, Ginosar, Galilee Boat, or ‘ancient boat’ should land you here. Pin from a dropped Apple Maps share at Kibbutz Ginosar — not a shoreline guess. Shay’s speedboat dock is the separate card behind this building.
