After listening to Ben Severne I dropped my boom in the high winds, I was using a 5.3 Naish Force, it really helped with control, I normally raise boom in stronger winds for more leverage (?) but found by lowering it allowed for more twist off, and made the sail quite manageable but dang it blew!
Actually I've noticed that boom height is way more critical than I thought. Had it 2cm too low one day, everything felt a bit schit, fixed it, and then either suddenly the conditions got a lot better or that one little thing was having a compound effect all through the system. Suddenly everything felt just right.
