Adjusting the trim of the boat by positioning of the crew can be important, and obviously the condition and trim of your sails is important, but how about the condition of your bottom--are your hull, keel, and rudder as well prepared as the competition's? If they are pulling away in light air on the downwind legs, hull drag could be a factor.
