I'd like to thank everyone who responded to my problem with
Silver Seed earlier- it enabled me to finish the abandoned outpost
successfully and eventually return to Serpent Isle.
However, no sooner had I returned then I got stuck again- I
bought Hawk out of jail and prepared for the ship journey to Moonshade
but I can't get past the ship. My characters sit down, Hawk, Flindo
and that blasted parrot get on board, and the figures freeze.
I can still move the mouse pointer, the birds keep flying around and
the waves keep moving, but the actual characters are frozen and I
can't move a thing.
Has anyone else encountered this? I've never had this happen
before, and can't seem to get around it...

This is a known bug... if any of the people who are supposed to be on
that ship are asleep, the game will get stuck. Make sure that
everyone who is meant for the ship is awake and in the tavern before
you speak to Hawk about the trip to Moonshade.

Something like this happened to me too. I just fired up the game again
and it worked the next time.

Here are some things you should be aware of before you try to set sail:
1. Hawk, Flindo, _and_ Kane need to be on the ship.
2. If Flindo and/or Kane are asleep, they won't join you.
3. Flindo sleeps from 12am - 9am.
4. Kane sleeps from 9pm - 6am.
I hope this is what is causing your problem.
