Dave, Any marine supply store should have a good selection of s/s screws both slotted & Phillips head in wood screw or self tapping. Even silicone bnz.  For ultimate rot protection set screws in epoxy. Set screw, remove then using a pipe cleaner saturate hole with epoxy & reinstall screw into wet hole. Wedging action screw threads forces epoxy deep into wood fibers waterproofing grip area from condensation on threads due to temperature changes. -Bill HyattTC 4926Sent from my iPhone

Thanks, Bill! I once read somewhere that they should be dipped in Waxoyl, but what's the point of that if they're stainless? Thanks to all who responded!
