Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A service door for a cowl for a marine propulsion device. A door panel is positionable in open and closed positions. A first hinge rotatably couples the door panel to the cowl. A coil spring biases the door panel towards the open position and a damper resists rotation of the door panel towards the open position. The first hinge rotates about a first axis and has a first hinge base, a first hinge axle, and a first hinge axle opening that receives the first hinge axle. The first hinge axle has base and distal ends. The base end is coupled to the first hinge base and the distal end has a spring slot. The coil spring has fixed and rotating ends. The rotating end imparts a spring force on the door panel with the fixed end in the spring slot.
