TV series on a boat, is the boat a location or a key word?

This TV series takes place for 6 weeks on a boat called "Statsraad Lehmkuhl".

Should I then add the boat as a Location, keyword or cast?

(This boat is featured in several series so I want to add It somewhere so I can keep track of them.)

Apparently there is some precedent for adding ships as locations.

Can vehicles like ships be added as filming locations?

Hi kristin -

There are instances where a ship would be eligible to be listed as a filming location, for example many ships are docked and a film may be shot on the ship at the docked location, which is argument that it would be a "place". 

So currently we are accepting of these listings.

I hope this helps!

The boat you are asking about is clearly not docked, but it is located in Norway, so perhaps it is not unreasonable to add it as Statsraad Lehmkuhl, Norway

@Peter_pbn  Thanks, no its not docked, it’s a minute-by-minute series where they follow the life on the boat live for approx. 11 hours a day while sailing.

Tried adding it as

"Statsraad Lehmkuhl, Norwegian sailing ship " (#210805-221609-621000 )

But it was declined.

Have tried to resubmit it now with a link to the homepage for the boat as well.

Usually in a filming location, there should be a country after the comma (or sometimes perhaps an ocean). If you put Norway it may be accepted.

You can put "sailing ship" or similar in the attribute field.
