Here is a link to a 10-second test animation (320 x 240 pixels) I created using Moho 5 .

It has no sound yet and is little bigger than 1.5Mb in size.
There are additonal notes on that page regarding the animation.

I really liked the character and the scene. Especially the waves and the subtle-ness of them. Personally i would move the boat and the character down so the 1st set of waves are a bit over the boat, this way it creates a feeling of depth.

Thanks for the feedback.
I tried that version you suggested (animation is all about testing and trying new positions and timing over and over), but changed it to the way it is because the waves in front blocked too much boat and one could not see the ripple around the bottom of the boat as it moves or the subtle splash up front .
As one person saw it with the front wave up higher - "It looks like the boat is underwater!"

looking good! I could see tons of kids watching this and being hypnotized..

more please

That looks absolutely beautiful.

My 7 year old daughter thought it was great. She wanted to know the name of it, the name of the creature, what kind of creature it was, and most importantlly, when she'd get to see some more!

Very cool. One other small suggestion would be to animate a fade out (in the transparency channel) on the particles (the drawings inside the particle layer itself). For things like smoke it makes it look a lot more... uh, natural? Well, less abrupt than just popping out of existence.

Very nice. One comment I have is that the black outlines are very severe compared with the other colours -- your eye is drawn straight to them...
