MP&G (formerly known as McClave, Philbrick, and Giblin) is a small boatbuilding and restoration shop in Mystic, CT. Our company was started in 1981 and the commercial boatbuilding experience of our partners dates back to 1974. We practice traditional plank-on-frame wood construction, specializing in extensive restorations of sailboats.

Our projects have included restorations or major structural upgrades of 31 boats built by the Herreshoff Mfg. Co. ranging from an 11′ frostbite dinghy to a 72′ “New York Fifty” sloop; six boats built by the Henry B. Nevins Co.; and many others, including boats built or designed by Fife, Concordia, Hodgdon, Persson, Dauntless, and Fay & Bowen.
