The MD & HB  Pilotage service had a  boarding station  at Point Lynas, on the Isle of Anglesey, on the North Wales  coast, fifty miles  from Liverpool. Dock Board tenders maintained the buoys and lightships out in Liverpool Bay. In 1893 the Board acquired its  first  dredger  the  Brancker.  The  company  employed  a  large  work-force  to  maintain the Birkenhead and Liverpool dock estates.
