Or go old school, wrap insulating tape round one end of a hacksaw blade to make a handle and patiently (but quietly) cut them by hand. When the blade goes blunt move the tape to the other end and make it a pull rather than push saw.
Admit I if I was a neighbour I'd appreciate some consideration.

Tim,
The oscillating tool would work well, but the hull can resonate the noise like a drum. I have to think of the neighbours, some of them are elderly.
However, I think the angle grinder is the noisest and the gunnels are rock solid so hopefully won't resonate.
A surgical strike is needed, 5-10 seconds on each screw then break for coffee.
Another option along the deck is my Bosch jigsaw with a metal cutting blade.
Chiselling the wood is very therapeutic though. I have a floorboard saw with fine teeth which might cut nails.
Cheers
Paul
