I think it's the same ship if "the same ship" means shape, style, performance, etc. it retains the same form but has been fully repaired
Kinda like how cars come off of the production line are all made out of different parts but are "the same car" and by extension when they're subsequently crashed and fully rebuilt by YouTube channels!
Edit: for context's sake, I think the article is the same as well. Different phrasing to get the same point across on the same page/url
Fun fact: German actually has a distinction between these two meanings of the same. "Dasselbe Schiff" would be the ship itself, and no other ship, even if it is the same. "Das gleiche Schiff" is another ship that is the same.
