Did you use just a single plane on the hull bottom? If you did, I would think that be less forgiving then one with the some upward angles or additional plane transitioning into the rails. I not sure what you mean by "heel". Are you tilting to one side, or are you tilted backwards? From the pics, you have a pretty acute rocker and minimal volume in the bow.
