Handrail to cabin top caulking

I've read that butyl tape can lead to loose and wobbly handrails so what's the best product for teak to gelcoat sealant? 4200...?
Thx Rol1964

That's a job I've been meaning to do for a while now. When I get around to it I will just seal the join with a thin bead of marine adhesive sealant.
