Why sending one ship? Mordor is nearly conquered and the enemy forces nearly destroyed. They could send whole armies and fleets of ships. Then the person controlling the ring earing ship (and possibly others too) would become corrupted and start fighting each other. This all would turn into a chaotic skirmish until the leaders regain control. Then the ring must be recovered from the wrecks and the fleet continues to travel to Mount Doom. And the corruption starts again.

But there is another chance that people from outside of Arda are completely immune from all effects of the ring, like Tom Bombadil. In this case it would be easy, at least if the White Council can convince the republican leaders.
