MARINE SPECIAL PRODUCTS GROUP - Key Persons
MSPG owner DG Fitton was born with the sea coursing through his veins and a boat rocking under his feet. Raised in a nautical family, he quickly found his way onto his own boats where he gained pleasure not only from their recreational value but also from figuring out and understanding how they worked. DG put this knowledge to good use working in boatyards and yacht clubs as a teen, where boats and the water also kept him out of serious trouble.
This formative interest in and understanding of the inner workings of sail and powerboats put DG on course to the marine electronics, systems installation, and maintenance profession. He now keeps himself out of trouble working on a wide variety of boats, spanning from fishing kayaks to nuclear submarines (and everything in between). DG has over 20 years of experience working with a wide and varied range of clients: mega-yacht owners, commercial fisherman, racing sailors, average Joes, the United States Navy, the United States Coast Guard, the NYPD, the State of Connecticut, SeaTow, The Fisher's Island Ferry, Towboat US and numerous boatyards and marinas from Maine to Maryland.
DG's interest in recreational and commercial boating extends beyond operating Marine Special Products Group, and he currently serves on the Board of Directors of the Connecticut Marine Trades Association.
