Default Teak seam caulk

There are some very good builders in these parts using the TDS SIS 440
product.
I've used it on a cockpit sole and liked it.
I used in the tubes and it applied cleanly. I didn't have the usual mess
where it ends up everywhere. Dunno why.
Sanding it off, you get easily handled crumbs. The finished surface of the
goo is acceptably smooth with few bubbles..

Need recommendations for seams in the new teak side decks. The candidates
with estimated material cost a
Boat-Life pourable two part polysulfide $496
DetCo pourable two part polysulfide ???
Maritime Wood Products one part silicone $605
Teak Decking Systems SIS 440 ???
Teak Deck Company silicone $424

The silicones are prepacked in tubes or sausages which makes them a little
less messy.
