Model of the Kinneret boat at Nof Ginnosar, which is on the western shore of the Sea of Galilee. The boat is also known as the Jesus Boat. The original, dating back to the time of Christ, was discovered in 1986 by two brothers at Ginnosar near ancient Gennesaret on the Sea of Galilee. In Jesus’ day, the Sea of Galilee was lined with about 16 fishing villages. Each town had its own harbor, making transportation and fishing easier. At least two of Jesus’ disciples were fishermen: Simon Peter and his brother Andrew.
