The five philosophers tell Theseus that it is the first ship: the ship's identity is linked to its causal history, not to the matter that composes it. Delighted with this answer, he offers the second ship to the adventurers, who sail toward the far shore.

The ship sinks halfway, since the party unwisely chose the ship made out of old, warped wood, instead of sticking Theseus with it.

Overall, good job! I was rather amused by The Devil and Blaise Pascal.
