2008 H220

I found 5 screws in the bottom of my port side carpeted bow storage. I've looked all over and can't figure out where they came from. All of the seat hinges have all their screws and I've stuck my entire head in the storage area and looked everywhere and can't figure out where they could have come from. Any help or possible locations is appreciated. BTW these are like wood screws and not the ones on these boats that kinda look like screws but actually have nuts on the back side.

One of the great mysteries of boating. I don't think you'll find a boat owner that doesn't have a glove box or cupholder with many randon screws in it that have fallen out.

I also have several, mostly in the rear of my boat that probably hold seatbacks or coming panels in place. Of course my boat is older and has had 15 years of time and maintenance removal of panels to accumulate them.

I did search on here and I found that it's normal for them to fall out so I'm not freaking out about them having fallen out but it just doesn't seem normal to not put them back, which is why I'm trying to figure out where they came from. On a side note this prompted me to go around and tighten up every screw I could see. Found quite a few but still didn't see any missing.
