[Alberg30] hull and deck joint

[Alan Slater]

A bolt is an externally threaded fastener, designed for insertion through
holes in assebled parts, and is normally intended to be tightened by
torquing a nut.
A screw is an externally threaded fastener capable of being inserted into
holes of assembled parts, of mating with a preformed internal thread (nut)
or forming its own thread  and is normally intended to be tightened by
torquing the head.
