Hi Alan,

You're talking about the picture of Bruce Little in his P15 at
http://potter-yachters.org/pics/keel.jpg?

I'd guess that he's heeled over about 40-50 degrees. The P19 has a deadrise
per side of 20 degrees at the stern, and it gets very, very stiff at about
50 degrees, and I'm making the un-confirmed assumption that the P15 is
similar to the P19 in terms of deadrise.

Using that info and my eyeball, I'll try a wild guess at 45 degrees.

Fair winds, Judy B
