Steam confirms the two achievement conditions; current players report using a dynamite blast to launch the boat, while the seagull achievement requires a dynamite kill.

Steam gives exact conditions for these two achievements: “I'm the bird now” requires making the boat fly, and “Everyone's dream” requires killing a seagull with dynamite. Steam does not publish a step-by-step method, so the procedure below separates the official condition from release-day player reports.
I'm the bird now — make the boat fly
A current player reports getting the boat airborne after dynamite was accidentally set off while two players stood on it, then thrown off the boat. Use that as a test method, not as a developer-confirmed exclusive solution:
- Move the boat into open space where a blast will not trap it against terrain.
- Keep the boat stationary enough to observe the result.
- Light or arm the dynamite while positioned on the boat.
- Throw it just off the boat so the blast can impart force without leaving the explosive in the passenger area.
- Watch for the boat to lose contact with the water or ground and check whether the achievement unlocks.
Physics can vary. Do not assume a failed first blast proves the condition is broken, and do not publish a guaranteed engine tier until it is confirmed in the current build.
Everyone's dream — kill a seagull with dynamite
The official wording is narrower: the seagull must die from dynamite. Prepare the explosive before the bird leaves the useful blast area, lead the throw rather than aiming at its current position, and avoid finishing it with a gun if this achievement is the goal.
The current discussion proves players are actively stuck on both conditions, but it does not yet provide a second independently verified seagull route. The official achievement text is therefore the authority for the required damage source.

QUICK ANSWERS
Questions players ask next
How do you make the boat fly in How to Fish?
Steam defines the condition only as making the boat fly. A release-day player reports triggering it by detonating dynamite while players were standing on the boat and throwing the explosive off the boat.
How do you unlock Everyone's dream?
Steam's official achievement page says to kill a seagull with dynamite. A gun kill or merely frightening the bird does not match that stated condition.
