Glenn, in addition to recommendation by the boatyards in these parts,
I got a recommendation for the TDS product from the US tech support
guy from Sika. Sika stopped importing a product for this application.
The TDS product didn't seem to be as messy as the polysulfide goos.
When sanded you get crumbs.

One option I don't recommend is graphite in epoxy. The dust stains
the teak.


I am leaning towards the TDS product. Epoxy/graphite was eliminated in
the first round. Besides being even nastier than 5200 it is just
counter intuitive. Wood moves. Epoxy doesn't. That seems like a sure
setup for cracks.
