Why not use a gimbal mount and mount the downriggers in the rod holders? Seems like the simplest solution.

While there is no manual for the EC 21 there is an owner's manual for the 3YM30 diesel motor. That could answer most of your questions regarding maintenance. Unfortunately, I cannot copy the link for you but you should be able to find it by going to cascadeengine.com and go to the Yanmar...

The boat is very easy to trailer and I have had no problems launching or retrieving. Just take your time and after a few attempts you should have the whole process mastered. BTW - I use a Nissan Frontier pick up with a V6 and it has plenty of power to tow my boat. I don't think you need a...

I decided to turn in my Toyota tundra that ive been leasing. Easy decision since I would not buy it or expect to sell it for the residual value. In its place I leased an 08 Nissan frontier. With the V6 its able to tow a maximum of 6000 lbs. It also has 261 HP which is only slightly less...

Just returned from a 700 mile round trip. I averaged 12 mpg from my toyota tundra (V eight) while towing my 21. I tried to keep my RPMs at 2000. Without the boat, I normally get around 16.

This is from a post on the South East Nordic Tug Owners Association board: "On the front page of the July 29th Skagit Valley Herald, Nordics Tugs announced they will be starting to build the 26 foot NT again and it will be unveiled at the January 2009 Seattle Boat show. They expect it to sell...

I just checked the Fisheries Supply website you mentioned. The price for the impeller through their site is about half of what I paid through a marine shop although I did get mine overnight with another shipment of supplies that the marine shop dealer had ordered.

Thanks for the heads up about checking the impeller. I checked my impeller, and sure enough it was missing one of the paddles. I was able to order one and had it shipped overnight so my weekend boating trip wasn't spoiled. I bought an extra and keep it on the boat. If others haven't had...

Would you mind posting the impeller part number. Thank you

I'm searching for a new tow vehicle. What do you tow your 21 with, what mileage do you get while towing and are you happy with your tow vehicle for every day use?

Anyone order an aftermarket bimini top for a 21 EC?. If so, who did you order from and how do you like it?

I found the best way to do it was to come in bow first and tie up (we had a rock we could put a rope around) and use an anchor at the stern. I kept the bow in about 1.5 feet of water and the stern in about 3 feet of water. It looked like neither the bow or stern touched the bottom nor did I...

I had someone check out the loose wire. I thought it was a ground wire as it looked black at first. It turned out it was a positive wire (red) that had been painted the same color as the block, probably sprayed that color at the factory. The wire was live but not connected to anything. The...

In checking out the engine compartment and making sure everything was ready to go for my first outing I noticed a loose wire. Its black with a ring terminal and a black rubber hood. It was simply leaning against the back of the alternator and appeared connected until I touched it and realized...

Heading up to local lake to spend the weekend. On one end of the lake there is a nice sandy beach. The boat was bottom painted recently. Can I comfortably beach it or will the keel interfere? I just purchased my 21 so I have no experience with it.

After warm up, what should the operating temperature of the motor be? 2006 Ranger 21 EC.
