In the manpage for the mount utility, the following section gives
options for vfat:

Mount options for fat
       (Note: fat is not a separate filesystem,  but  a  common  part of  the
       msdos, umsdos and vfat filesystems.)

[...]

       uid=value and gid=value
              Set  the owner and group of all files. (Default: the uid and gid
              of the current process.)

       umask=value
              Set the umask (the bitmask  of  the  permissions  that are  not
              present).  The default is the umask of the current process.  The
              value is given in octal.


Those can be used in the /etc/fstab options field.
