Provenance: A private Massachusetts collection. Note: Point Lynas was the main station of the Liverpool Pilot Service, where incoming ships would pick up a pilot who would bring their vessels safely into harbor. The ship on the left has the “pilot jack” flying from her foremast, requesting a pilot. The brig closest to the shore is also flying the “pilot jack.” The Liverpool No. 1 pilot sloop was built by William Dickerson & Co. in 1834 and sold and removed from the pilot service in 1856. Pilot No. 11 is a cutter, and is flying the blue peter indicating that she has pilots aboard ready to be of service. The exact identity of the pilot No. 11 is difficult to precisely establish. She is either the Mersey built in 1816 and sold in 1847 or she is the Mersey built in 1847 and replaced in 1878. Both vessels were square-sterned and of similar dimensions.
