Jay Please keep in mind that those plastic / synthetic washers have a high probability of deteriorating over the next several years creating a new set of issues.

But that the reaction is self limiting and that stainless fasteners with aluminum are used in marine applications albeit only with anodized aluminum. Or say fine and invoice accordingly for the plastic washers.
