This song, I believe, alludes to the story of Noah. The fishing boat (the arc) is offered to the speaker before the gale (the Flood). But this is the story of the Modern Noah, who faces a different kind of flood than the one from "back in the day."
To truly receive and use the Fishing Boat, the speaker must leave the world behind and fully commit to "his Jesus."
Finally, I think the term "Fisher of Men" should be considered in relation to this song.
