Why I build a boat?

Why would Noah build an ark for one hundred years? If there were a local flood then he didn't have to built an ark. He could travel to another place where there was not a flood.
Why would God have to bring two of every land-breathing creature to the Ark if they was a local flood and they would be safe where they were located.
The answers to the above questions have no logical sense when we try to interpret the Genesis Flood as a local flood.

Genesis 9:8-11

 

Then God said to Noah and to his sons with him: “I now establish my covenant with you and with your descendants after you 10 and with every living creature that was with you—the birds, the livestock and all the wild animals, all those that came out of the ark with you—every living creature on earth. 11 I establish my covenant with you: Never again will all life be destroyed by the waters of a flood; never again will there be a flood to destroy the earth.”


Genesis 9:16

 16 Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth.”

 

If we interpret the Genesis Flood to be a local flood, then God's everlasting covenant is meaningless because we have many devastating local floods throughout the world. The only interpretation that is consistent with God's everlasting covenant is that it was a worldwide Flood since there has never another one. What does is my point? I am explaining that the long geologic ages are not real. Is there any geologic evidence to support this claim? The answer is one word. The word is called yes.
