I agree. If I start with this template :
Then do a quick and dirty 3-part breakdown :
As you see, the 3-part breakdown shows 21+ degrees max in the last portion of the tail. Only full boattails will ever use this angle, and it's still much less than 28 degrees.
From the above, the "average" angle is about 14 degrees. The angle near the start of the boattail is shallow, like a Honda Fit. The longer the kammback, the greater the angle, tapping out at about ... 15 degrees max.
