What's best: jib sheets inboard of the shrouds or outboard? Outboard the blocks are aft, inboard the blocks are forward...but what's best for optimum jib sail trim?

Frank,
The 110 works best with the sheets inside the shrouds.They work smoother with no hangups.I keep the blocks on the 5th one from the most forward.It seems to be the optimum for pointing and reaching.I would probably put them foward if I was running allowing the jib to go further out.
