Heeling angles

Thanks for all the help from everyone so far. We got her out on the water for a lake trial this past weekend (its kinda like a sea trial, but further from the ocean) and had a blast. Here is a photo of Jenn at the helm our first day out.
However, some of our more experienced sailing friends accused us of being a mite timid on the heel angles (we got up to 22 degrees at most). How far do the rest of you push your boats? Are there a big differences in designs, or more just differences in the person at the helm? Also, does anyone know the LPS (Limit of Positive Stability) for any of the various South Coast Seacraft?
