Rather than going though an exhausting and extensive list of all the factors I find so perfectly placed, and utilized herein, I'll just say I think I likely love everything about this.

Credit is where credit is due. this is the kind of thing I would want to see in a book about childhood (with real magic, or just pretend but no less magical magic), full of the wonder and mystery that so many adults lose outside of puberty. I love it.

This is really beautiful, you've definitely captured an ambience here. My only critique is that those spherical lights on the bow of the boat aren't reflected in the water. But thats just me being nitpicky. Lovely work!
