Give Bosuns a call. Number is on the site and I am pretty sure they will sell the 20 you need.

Your idea of a fastener club or CO OP buy is good until you consider the ridiculous S&H costs we would all have to pay each time. I have many more of each size than I need right now but if you plan to be around boats for a while, they don't go bad but the price sure does go up. What I found is if I went to my local HD or hardware store and they had the sizes I needed it would cost just about as much to buy 20 screws as I paid Bosuns to buy 100. I think I spent close to $250 on screws but I can screw all day long and still have a few screws left over. :-))))
