Too much heel. Ease off on the traveler or mainsheet. Also, get some of
that meat on the rail and out of the cockpit. It'll be easier to steer and
you'll make better time (go faster!).

Looks like fun, though.

I didn't even bother looking at the photos or video or whatever. Every other
photo I've seen of him in the past "sailing" has the mainsail sheeted in way
too far and to compound his folly he has the headsail sheeted in even more
so it tends to backwind the mainsail in the luff. That's when he bothers to
unroll the blown out jenny. I bet he sails with the sails close hauled even
when the hull is broad reaching. He's no sailor. Never has been and never
will be. He's a show boater only. If there wasn't an audience for him to
show off to he'd not even bother with boats or any of his other abused and
misused toys, for that matter.
