Take the hinge off and have a weld shop build up the missing aluminum, then cut/grind/sand to original shape, and drill new holes.

I won't say any more about it, I promise. I am repairing my leaky hatch despite recommendations to replace it with a new unit. One of the problems is that one of the hinges is broken off at the tip, missing a portion up to the first of two screw holes. Does anyone know where I can find one of these babies? I was going to have it fabricated but the guy here in Miami wants 250 for it. It is a rather complex design. The hatch is no longer made, as you know. Replacing it with an entirely new unit, besides being a design faux pas, has let me to the problem of the cut out size not being quite right (mine is a 1/4" smaller in most cases) and the natch frames not being flush to the deck. The ones I have found have a lip, which the original does not have. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks.
