I couldn't help but chuckle that Jeanneau owners are claiming to have invented / named this knot. It's just the halyard hitch with a different finish. So perhaps it should be called halyard hitch, Jeanneau variant? I use the standard halyard hitch which ends with the tail up:

Everyone has their favorite knots and they all have their merits, so if your happy with your arrangement stay with it. The reasons why I like this Jeanneau Halyard knot is that it won't untie it's self as Joel pointed out and because the bitter end is away from the sheave and not likely to foul

Yeah Jim that was one of the factors I was considering in my future-proof approach. I thought it would be a stretch to think that I would go up to 5/8ths or really even 1/2 but the core to core eye splice was definitely in the consideration. Like you, I have elected to use a knot. I prefer the

One thing to consider about sheave sizes which I did not think about when I replaced my halyards... don't forget to allow for the eidth of your line due to your eye splice for your halyard shackle. It obviously makes the line much thicker and makes it harder to hoist the last 8"-12" or so of the
