I was racing this weekend in very windy conditions (15+) and was having trouble keeping the boat flat going upwind when the mainsheet was pulled in. All the controls (vang, outhaul, cunningham) were pulled tight but despite hiking as far out as I could (I'm 175 lbs) the boat was still 20 degrees from being flat. Am I correct in assuming that I was just being greedy and that I would have been better off in not pointing as high and letting out the mainsheet until the boat was flat?
