Recognize this door catch?
Its a kind of spring-loaded push-button door catch, fitted to my molded FRP cupboard doors. Trying to find a direct replacement instead of a perpetual search for something else that fits...

Many captive ball type latches have a threaded ring surrounding the ball that keeps the ball and spring in place. You should be able to remove that and simply replace the spring.

To the OP, sorry, I have never seen anything like that. What make, model and year of boat?
