Being at Home on Open Water...

"I have tried the Echo at Mystic Small Craft Weekend the first weekend of June every year, what a nice boat. All I had to do was just float it go out sit on it set myself up and go for a row. It is a wonderful very well thought out design lightyears better than the Alden single because it is designed to be launched in waves from a beach as well as from a dock. It has volume where you want it in the bow and midship. This is the most portable sliding seat boat I have ever seen. I know Doug Martin the designer. He put into this boat all those things one needs for being truly at home on open water. You should look at his video because this shows how the boat reacts to wave conditions. "
