    Geoff at TLM is still making headway in small increments on my Biel boat. Here is a finished seat. Hope I fit in it.
    The side panels are being upholstered also. Many details for what is a one off boat at this time.
    Yours could be vastly different.

    I have a day this boat may be on the water, but I'll hold off on saying that because everything goes over on time, right?
    ...Lets say not so long from now.

    Don't try to push for a deadline, it only creates frustration and ill feelings. Its going to be a cool little boat and I hope you enjoy it.

    Thanks Joe, good wisdom. I have held that belief also. The builders have left it open, with a decent pace IMO. They just want to get a Biel boat under their belt.
    This particular boat has its teething and market viability to prove. It will be very turn key for that reason. How well can the Biel Promise boat be done? I will have a nice boat for that reason. Here's to summer!

    Steady gain on my Biel boat. It will be on the water before long we all hope! Boat is finally on the trailer and the motor mounted.
    Plenty of details with the interior yet but its coming along. I like Geoffs progress at Twisted liquid Marine, and I do not push.
    There have been a few issues along the way, which Geoff ponders & comes up with good solutions. I believe Geoff & Mike Biel will be shaking it down and squeezing all the mph out of it they can before long. I just hope for a peppy runabout with the Biel boat style.

    I'm going to hit them up about those bucket seats. They look perfect for my boat. Since mine is a tunnel also, it limits the seats that can be in since I cant drill thru the floor. I like his glass design and the materials he used!

    Twisted Liquid marine has various fiberglass seat shells. They also do custom cnc seats from scratch. Not sure if they sell seats independently - its worth an ask.

    TLM (and Domn8er boats) is a pretty complete facility. A fair sized crew working in molds, interior, and finish phases of the boat - Hopefully a good fit for the Biel boat. My boat is going through minor technical issues due to slight re-tooling and fitment, also using more modern fittings. This first Biel boat is also pretty deluxe, like no other Biel Promise boat. It also can be a much more cost effective raw hull, you finish it, and not subject to motor limitations (at your risk).

    I am not involved in the business of this boat shop. Merely a wannabe Biel boat owner.
    Any build concerns can be answered through Mike Biel or Geoff at TLM!

    Hey we got a cockpit! A lot of silver/grey, but I think some sunlight will make it pop. It will be on the water soon. Mike has a handfull of props to test out. ...We'll see how it shakes out.
    I think my last payment is almost due! LOL

    Probably after Easter at this point. Mike will test a prop or two before I come down. Looking to run about in Havasu and get a feel for the pocket rocket. I could be in it by the end of April. Coming up quick!

    Do you know if they got a bare hull weight by any chance?
