Hmmm...we seem to have 2 different systems/philosophies here.
Hauler A - similar to a spinnaker twing. Uses a block attached to toe rail and
a block, ring, carabiner, spring clip, (or equivalent) clipped onto the
jibsheet between the jib lead and the clew. Haul line runs inside lifelines.
Capable of hauling the jibsheet outboard towards but not over or outside the
lifelines.
Hauler B - snatch block (or equivalent) on toe rail and a snap shackle,
carabiner (or equivalent) attached to clew of sail or to the clew bowline knot.
Haul line runs under and outside of toe rail. Capable of hauling the jib
sheet outside the lifeline or inside if used in conjunction with the jib sheet.
On Touche' we use hauler B. Quite often the regular jib sheet is slack as all
of the load is taken on the hauler. This is functionally equivalent to the jib
sheet being lead to the toe rail. Since we have both primary and secondary
winches, we have the flexibility to proportion the load between 100% to the
lead on the track to 100% to the snatch block on the rail and anywhere in
between. Hauler B is capable of opening the slot much more than Hauler A.
Actually, at some point it ceases to be a slot.
Don't think there's a right or wrong here. The point is to be able to get the
clew of the sail where you want to optimize the trim.
If I was rigging an inhauler, it would look like Hauler A with the block
attached somewhere inboard of the genoa track.

>On our 30, we use the spinnaker twing setup for a barber
hauler. The twings are dinghy snatch blocks at the end of a 1/4 inch line which
is run through a block attached to the toe rail, then back to a cam cleat
near the lifeline gate. Placing them back further means someone in the cockpit
can control them.
