      Ok so my mind is going slowly…. I broke two hinges yesterday and the idiot I am did not remove them so I can match them up with new ones. I will not be at the boat again for about a week.
      Can someone take a look at
      a) the hinges on the aft hanging locker
      b) hinges on the two little doors under the aft berth and see if they are like

      Alan,

      Those hinges are not special marine hinges – they are standard hinges you can purchase from Home Depot for $1.79 a pair.  You don't need stainless steel for interior hinges as none of the ones supplied by Pearson are – they're all just cabinetry hinges.  As far as the hinges on the doors in the aft bunk, I'd get the self-closing ones.  They spring closed when the door is close to closed and they're just snappier.  Your choice though.  They all come with matching screws.

      You can get them in many finishes at H.D.  from chrome to brushed steel to brass to antiqued brass, etc.  They are 2-1/2″ and are not offset (offset hinges are for where the door isn't flat in back, i.e. it has a 3/8″ indent, but I digress.

      There are just some things on a boat that don't need to be 'marine' and you'd just be paying too much for them.  

      This is just my opinion so take that with a grain of salt.

      I was going over to HD later today to see if I can find something. I just could not recall if there were offset or not.
      thanks

      Hi,

      If they're the ones above the bunk they are not offset – straight hinges throughout the boat.
