Wait? You used SS screws directly into the AL masthead? Hopefully anyone going this direction remembers to coat the threads with something such as loctitie or similar isolator. I've read that Tef-Gel & Lanocote are other products made for this application. e.g. something to keep salt out of the gap between the AL and the SS.
Also for those who are going to use SS then make sure you find some 316 SS as it has less tendency to rust. I believe the hardware store stuff is 304 SS. If the boat is in and always will remain in freshwater this is less of an issue; except 304 will always rust faster.
