A more aero bike really helps, as does tight fitting clothes. IMO, the worst thing you can do is wear a windbreaker on a bike. It's like wearing a sail, and if it's a headwind, you're going to be fighting hard!
I had to google "small craft advisory" to curiously figure out how many sail wind knots that is in miles per hour. Seems like about the 26 mph mark the advisory kicks in. Some winter pounds I'm still working off, but normally I'm more of a small craft too, lol. I never thought about the lose windbreaker gear. Being more aero does help. Thx.
