does it also have threads on the outside? coarse like a wood screw?

No they aren't coarse wood threads. It's not meant to screw into the deck. You put it in through a hole the deck/gunnels and secure it with a nut and washer/lock washer.

It's gonna hold turnbuckles to the gunnels of my boat that will hold down a removeable bow platform.
