There was a discussion a short while ago about examples of R22s being
knocked over by unusually strong winds and self-righting.  A sailing coach I
was taking with the other day asked what the LPS (limit of positive
stability) is for our boat.  Wikipedia defines that as the angle beyond
which a boat will completely invert (keel up).  Does anyone know what that
is for our boat?
