My guess is that knob is not the original OEM for that latch. Someone lost the original wing nut.

Be sure to use with TEF-GEL Teflon paste when attaching new ones.
Pricey items, too
Also a good idea to open windows and clean the windows channels, inside frames and locks when done boating

You know what Mark, looking at this picture again, I don't think the bolt that plastic knob screws into is original either.
My guess is the two pieces attached to the window frames are original, but someone replaced the threaded bolt and the plastic knob. Reason I say that is the bolt is rusted but the two pieces attached to the upper and lower window frames are not. My windows are just a year older than yours and my latches have zero rust on them. How is the other end of that threaded bolt attached?

Wynne has them for $75 per set
Perko 967-000-CHR
Windshield Keeper
http://www.wynneinc.com/Models/Parts/parts.html
They are from Perko so shop around
I would remove your existing ones soon before they attack the AL window frames, clean well and add TefGel Teflon paste to slow down and hopefully prevent corrosion. Personally, the keepers are a poor design using dissimilar metals and be made of aluminum or casted polymer that can be replaced . I might remove them and just use slider arms on new windows
On my boat the keepers corroded the frames severely and another issue is the glass is fogged. I spoke with Warthog and he said replacement was the best option
Hopefully we will replace the windows soon. The lead time is currently 6 weeks from Wynne.
Definitely plan to order longer slider arms
