Aft locker latch

Post by TBOT422 »

Has anyone replaced the recessed latch on the aft cockpit lockers? What did you use? The key lock and latch mechanism is not necessary.

Can Purchase at Catalina Direct

From the Home Page go to By Boat and select 350

Then select Hatches & Ports

Then select Replacement Parts

Suggest taking a photo of the existing hinge and compare. Elsewhere on the site are the same hinges with rounded corners. The above have sharp, square corners. I dont remember which corner style is on the aft hatches; think is sharp square if my memory is correct. The transom hinges are rounded corners; if my memory is correct. My boat is on the hard under cover. Good Luck!

Hi Gary,

Not clear on what part you are looking for. Assuming hatches at either side of helmsman position accessing the deep lockers, mine just has "pull/hatch lifters" which had corroded and I replaced some years ago but can't find out from where. From memory the latches to the transom hatch covers, and the large sail locker hatch cover are different again. Maybe if you post a photo of the part you are after?

I am not at boat, but I think we use something like this for rear cockpit hatches?
