      So as long as you carefully document the changes to the ship, it remains the same ship. Makes sense I guess

      If you gradually remove all the bits of the ship and make a new ship out of all the bits you replaced, which ship would be the original?

        Neither. It was never the bits that made the ship, but the ship that was made from the bits gathered along the way

        that's an "oh fuck off" question because you can't actually do that. Wearing parts would be dust, a broken board would still be broken, etc and an "all the replaced parts" reconstitution wouldn't hold its shape.

              No part of the original question necessarily indicates any wood has rotted, you added that

              Edit: no wait, I see. Some internet random in 2003 added that. Either way it's not a fundamental part of the thought experiment
