The Echo 12 is a quintessential Canadian-built sailing dinghy, developed during the fiberglass manufacturing boom of the late 1960s and 1970s. Produced by Skene Boats Ltd. in Gloucester, Ontario, the vessel was engineered to provide a stable, accessible platform for novice sailors, yacht club training programs, and cottage-front recreation. At 12 feet in length, it occupies a strategic middle ground in the small-boat market, offering more buoyancy and cockpit space than a junior trainer like the Optimist, while remaining significantly easier to rig and single-hand than the larger, more technical Albacore—a model for which Skene Boats was also well known.
