When you do this also rake your rudders under the stern more. I redrilled my pivots by half the hole width and made adjustment screws on the castings. This loads up the rudders and turns them into centerboards.
Keep the leeward hull buried 3/4 of the way up the bow chine.
Lastly, boat speed. Keep the boat moving. If you can track speed you can find a sweet spot of speed at 55deg off the wind and outrun them.
You could also make a nylon strap with rings (see a Prindle 19) that spans the jib cars. This will allow you to move the jib block inboard and sail by the jib at higher angles.
