Stainless steel rivets in aluminum gunnels?

I want to bag out a canoe with aluminum gunnels and I am thinking of using
marine grade stainless steel rivets. I have some hazy memories form school
that different metals, next to each other can cause corrosion, especially if
there is salt water about. Does anyone know whether it is OK to use steel
rivets in aluminum?
