You think about heading up to see Swallow. She might be able to shoot the rope, or better yet, the hand holding the pouch. But you're not sure this stalemate won't break by the time you get up there.
But maybe you can send a signal. She can see well enough, so you just need to draw her attention to the target.
Before you can think any further on that, somebody hands you a halberd.
"Er, if you don't still need it, sir, I can put it back," the sailor says nervously.
Well. You can't think of anything to hit with it at the moment, but it's a nice big stick with distinct ends. Should be good for pointing out what you want Swallow to hit, if nothing else.
Now if you could just be sure her eyes are on you somehow.
