It seems that the link you gave is unavailable to us for some reason, but I did find another one that covers the same story.

There has already been a very good program on the National Geographic channel where some guys built a replica in one of Egypts ports near Alexandria and sailed it into the Red Sea to re-enact the vayage of Hatshepsut's expedition. It even showed a great find of some lengths of rope that they believed were from that particular expedition.
