Explanation:
The air that is inside a ship is much less dense than water. That's what keeps it floating. As a ship is set in water, it pushes down and displaces an amount of water equal to its weight.
and yes even though the metal of the ship is heavier and denser than water, but the air within the ship makes the overall density of the ship less than that of water, hence it floats.
