Answer:
It will sink, and it is easy to remember which way. The weight of the ship (called displacement, for a very good reason) hasn't changed, and it will always displace an amount of water that weighs the same amount as the ship (see, a good reason).
Since fresh water doesn't have all the salts dissolved in it, a volume of fresh water weighs less than the same volume of seawater. Therefore the ship has to displace more fresh water to equal her weight, and the ship sinks in order to do that
