Have We Really Found Noah's Ark?

Well, you've probably seen the headlines: a team has supposedly found major evidence suggesting a formation in Turkey near Mt. Ararat is Noah's Ark.
As a creationist, I would love to see the real ark, not just Ken Ham's in Kentucky. It would be an incredible discovery. Skeptics will be skeptics, of course.
Speaking of skeptics, while I would love for us to find the real Noah's Ark, I'm a tad skeptical, too. I'm open, but I want real evidence that proves or denies this discovery.
Thankfully, after watching this interview on Apologia, I suspect the team working on this also wants real proof and is willing to put in the work to find it.
The evidence is compelling: large stones used to weigh down ships in rough water, possible petrified wood, remnants of dwellings, and a mysterious boat-shaped structure underground. All this at over six thousand feet above sea level, hundreds of miles away from the nearest ocean.
I think it is worth supporting this work. Even if it isn't Noah's Ark, it's still a major archaeological find.
If it is, well, we know it won't convince everyone (Romans 1:18-21). But, even so, it's further testimony to our great God, and the work He has done, and is doing, in this world.
