Star Wars: The Clone Wars 2x22 Lethal Trackdown

My thinking too. But I'm trying to recall anywhere ONSCREEN that implies or states that Boba's ship is Jango's ship. So assuming they don't salvage the ship (which I can see happening, but would write off as predictable), Boba could always buy a another ship of the same class.

I don't think it is mentioned anywhere onscreen (i.e. CANON) that Jango's ship (Slave I) is Boba's but according to Wikipedia (using EU sources) Boba continued to use Slave 1 well into the LOTF-era although he apparently also used other "Slave" ships when Slave-1 was damaged or temporarily lost for one reason or another.

Given that most of the information provided by Wikipedia on this matter is based on EU sourcing, it's difficult to determine what information will be ultimately (re-)written into official GL-approved canon but I imagine, however, that, what we have seen is the one and only Slave-1 that Boba continues to possess in TESB and beyond.

One thing left hanging, sort of. Didn't Aurra say Castas's replacement would be found on Hondo's world...yet we never met that person?

I was expecting another recognizable bounty hunter to appear.

I thought Hondo was the Bounty Hunter they were going after?

The ship in this 3-parter was explicitly referred to onscreen as Slave 1. So it's not just the same class of ship that Boba used in TESB, but it's overtly identified by the same name. That suggests that the writers of this 3-parter intended it to be the same ship. So it's odd that those same writers ended the 3-parter with its apparent destruction. Unless that's a deliberate clue that the explosion was faked to allow Aurra to escape.

Slave I is never referred to by name in ESB (neither is Boba Fett's name for that matter) though I would assume it's referenced in the script.

An interesting design detail: the hover taxi used by Plo and Ahsoka to descend below had animated ads on the sides. What's odd, though, is that they faced outward and couldn't be read by the passengers. That seems counterproductive.

Yeah. I don't know where they come up with such a silly idea, either.

Might want to fix that quote

Or it's just not the same ship. Even the EU seems to muddy the water on the topic at times. And it wouldn't be beyond Lucasfilm to throw up an ole' single-digit-salute to past "canon" or "continuity".

After all, at this point pretty much a lot of the "history" of Fett, the Clone Wars, and the Mandolorians has been overwritten.

Yes, duh, real vehicles have ads on the outside, but they also generally have ads on the inside as well. And this is a hovering/flying vehicle, not a ground vehicle, so it would be harder for bystanders to read its ads than to read ads on the side of a bus, especially since the ad surfaces are angled upward.
