Barber haulers / alternate sheeting arrangements for a Strider

I am looking in to alternate sheeting arrangements for the jib/genoa of a Strider. I currently have the "standard" arrangement of tracks running athwart ships along the forward edge of the solid bridge deck. These are
a) too far outboard even on their most inboard setting and thus affect pointing ability
b) If the genoa is rolled at all the sheeting angle is not correct.

I saw on Klaas Jan Hoeve website something that looked like a barber hauler for the jib sheets and wondered if he or anyone else had details of systems used.

I am also thinking of adding a "screecher" deployed from a bowsprit and again was seeking any ideas on sheeting leads/systems.
