Yeah, the Falmer themselves should probably stay well away from boats.

Zombie messengers might work, if they happen to find one of the rare NPCs who retains their standard dialogue when zombified (there are a few, though they still moan now and then...). The main point of using a zombie, though, is that it can pass for human at a distance, so has more chance of delivering a message before being destroyed by the Forsworn. If necessary, the message could even be written on the zombie, rather than delivered verbally, and worded in a manner which requires no verbal response (something simple, along the lines of "meet us peacefully at xxxx.  If our zombie comes home, we assume you agree".

Off the top of my head, I forget whether there are any inscriptions/engravings in Dwemer ruins. If there are, a few Falmer might have learned to read by touch?
