In response, Link nods in agreement. Even if the ship had managed to offload much of its weight, it's unlikely that they'd have had time to get everything off.

And with that in might, Link makes his way to the hatch. The vertical incline is certainly one that would bother most people, and make even getting to the ship in the first place a serious challenge. Fortunately, Link is very, very good at climbing - so while Donnie inspects the outside of the ship, Link scurries up to the loading hatch. He moves quickly and confidently, making it look deceptively easy.

Once there, he pulls a long piece of rope out of his pack. Ties one end to a beam that's still sturdy and solid. And then drops the other end down. Should help Donnie's own journey up.
