 Aluminum screws/bolts?
Rigging my boat and looking at all the details and was wondering about securing with 2 different metal types. I understand over time this can lead to electraloysis and corrosion. I know they make aluminum screws and I'm using aluminum rivets where I can (LED nav lights and billet fuel fill). I still need to attach bilge/elec panel/12v plug/water separator fuel filter and was considering aluminum screws and or bolts.
Thoughts?

 Re: Aluminum screws/bolts?
I've just put aluminum riv ruts in my boat to hold the trolling motor and my front running light. I just had a thread on riv nuts.
