Good morning Captain,
We have a 2009 21 EC and added full screen enclosures. We also have clear vinyl enclosures as well. The enclosure is made of 6 segments that zip onto the bimini top. Works great!. The vinyl enclosures came with our boat so I able to take them to a shop to use as a template for the screens.
Cheers!

We had our enclosure made for our 2016 by King Marine Canvas and had just the back vinyl made with a replaceable screen. The thought was to keep the cabin windows open and with the back screen in place have ventilation. Haven't tried this yet. Dave at King said he can easily make more screen sections if needed. I would just need to let him use the vinyl section for a template.

Hello,
I just saw this post and thought I should offer a warning. Exhaust fumes can be drawn in by the airflow of the moving boat if you don't also have some side curtains open. I retired from the Coast Guard, and had a rescue case where I had to jump onto a moving boat because the occupants were all unconscious from carbon monoxide poisoning because of this very thing.
You can do a google search of "Station Wagon Effect" to see more information on this.
Just a bit of advice,
Brad Owens

Hi Brad,
That's great advice. I had planned on using the back screen when at anchor or at the dock however I probably would have used it while underway at some time. I certainly won't now and appreciate the warning.
Thanks again,
Bob
