Default Drywall screws to hold strip planking

Depends on the size of the project. Staples are OK for a canoe or
dinghy but my strips were 1.125" thick. Staples would not have worked.

The screws don't rust as far as I know and as the whole lot is

==============================================

The standard screws will rust, it's just a matter of time. You can
get them in either galvanized or stainless steel however.
