Deep Sea Ship/Guide

Why farm Deep Sea Ship?
The Deep Sea Ship dungeon is usually farmed for the 
Sunset Rapier, which is an upgrade after the 
Dragon Sword.
The dungeon has two other notable uses.
The first one is farming 
FEZ if you don't want to wait until you're able to farm 
Fierce Devil.
The second one is getting the 
Ancient Sword if you want to save on food. Due to its low drop chance, it's usually done only if you really need it, for instance if you play HCCO.
Gear
Although you can beat the dungeon with any combat style, it is advised to use 
Magic because the final boss 
Kraken has high evasion against 
Attack and 
Ranged.
For instance, your 
HP expenditure per hour with Attack can be a quarter of what Magic spends, but the number of clears with Attack would be half of Magic. Usually, the difference in food is negligible in terms of time needed to produce it, so Magic is recommended.
Check your build with Can I Idle to see if you can idle the dungeon.
As an example for Hardcore, you need 680 HP with 
Auto Eat - Tier II to idle this dungeon without any Damage Resistance.

With the clear speed of 23.5 dungeons per hour, you will need around 4 hours to have a 50% chance of getting Sunset Rapier.
To have a 95% chance, you will need [math]\displaystyle{ ( log_{1-5/641}0.05 ) / 23.5 }[/math] or 16.2 hours.
