Peter says baptism saves you. San soo says it doesn't. You will try to make much ado about the pledge of a good conscience stuff but it will not fool anyone who reads with the Holy Spirit. Baptism saves, that is the plain words of Peter. Yes, along with the boat.
Water is essential for the boat and the boat is essential for the boat.
Really, let's stop trying to figure out how God got all of those creatures on the boat and look at the beauty of the story. God saved Noah. The fact is Noah was saved FROM the water and not by the water. That is a fact. Peter, as refered to above, says that you are wrong.
