Ben Titcomb
Small Crafts Dept. Head

Ben returns for his second summer on Echo Lake as our Head of Sailing. Ben earned his International Business degree from Quinnipiac University. As a Maine resident, Ben spent many summers in the New England area participating in water sports and has over a decade of experience running a variety of water crafts, including sailboats, motor boats, jetskis and more. Beyond the water, he’s an avid climber and basketball aficionado. We’re eager to set sail with Ben again on Echo Lake!
