Suggestion ? - I would like to replace a door hinge (plastic) that holds two swinging doors for the cabin. I have a 1973 ranger and the doors are for the forward cabin.

That appears to be the hinge that

is used in accordian fold doors for houses.

Piano Hindges..

Marine Grade Piano Hindges (meaning stainless steel) are sold by Defenders and West Marine..these can be cut to size as needed and look like just the answer to your problem. David

Suggestions ? Door Hinge

Thanks, I have looked at that and it appears the metal hinges, there is not enough space to close both doors.

You may have to plane (trim) the doors slightly..80 grit sandpaper will work if you lack woodworking tools.Sand then fit..sand..then fit.Work alittle at a time till you get the desired results.
