it depends which definition of "building" you are applying. Floating
buildings might be legally considered buildings in some places.
there is already 27 building=ship
http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/search?q=building%3Dship#tags
and 43 building=boat/boat_house
http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/search?q=building%3Dboat#tags

> Why not a static_ship=museum ?


IMHO it is too specific for the key, but you can add this without any
problem and see if other mappers like it and use it as well. What is
the systematics?

cheers,
