One other thought--rocking your mast as far forward as you can helps your speed downwind. In Detroit this is called "fraculating"--fasten the jib halyard to the stem of the boat; ease the backstay off all the way and crank hard on the jib halyard. This significantly improves downwind speed under spinnaker.
