 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                                    OF
                           RESULTS IN OPERATIONS

           Nine Months Ended September 30, 1997

     The net operating income of $2,807,000 for the first nine months 
of 1997 is 34.12% or $1,454,000 below the same period in the prior 
year. Net income after taxes for 1997 is projected to be $3,200,000 
or approximately 39.94% or $2,128,000 less than 1996.

     This decrease in net income through the first nine months of 1997 is 
primarily due to the increase in the loan loss provision expense to 
$2,408,000 or 251% greater as compared to $960,000 for the first 
three quarters of 1996.

     The increase in the loan loss provision expense was necessitated 
by the substantial amount of marine installment loans required to be 
charged off in the third quarter of 1997 which required the company to 
increase its allowance for loan losses to comply with regulatory 
requirements.

     There has been the following significant changes in charge offs, 
recoveries, non-accruing or non-performing loans in the third 
quarter of 1997:

       An increase from the second quarter to the third quarter of 
1997 of approximately $1,152,000 in loans secured by real 
estate past due 30 through 89 days and still accruing, 
an increase of $422,000 in commercial and industrial 
loans past due 30 through 89 days and still accruing, 
and an increase of $677,000 in commercial and industrial 
loans in non-accrual. These loans are secured by real 
estate and other collateral and minimal loss is expected 
at this time.

      The increase in the loans secured by real estate past due 
30 through 89 days and still accruing and the increase in 
commercial and industrial loans past due 30 through 89 days 
and still accruing  from the second quarter to third quarter 
of 1997 is primarily a result of a substantial marine dealership 
filing Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the third quarter of 1997.

     Total charge offs for the first nine months of 1997 totaled 
$1,934,000 while total recoveries during the same period were 
$47,000. In the third quarter of 1997, there was a total of 
$1,706,000 in charge offs of loans to industrial, household 
and other personal expenditures.

     The Company had approximately $2,454,000 in installment 
marine retail loans from the above described marine dealership 
that were 120 days or more delinquent. There were approximately 
$1,472,000 of these 120 days or more delinquent loans charged off 
in the third quarter of 1997 and the balance of $982,000 was 
repossessed in the form of marine collateral. To the extent 
that the Bank realizes more or less than the $982,000 from 
the sale of the marine collateral it will increase or decrease 
the Company's loss.

     In addition to the $2,454,000 discussed above, the 
Company has as additional amount of delinquent retail 
installment marine loans generated from the above 
described marine dealership as  follows: $805,000 
30 - 59 days delinquent, $752,000 60-89 days delinquent, 
$227,000 90 days to 119 days delinquent. There are 
approximately $18,651,000 of retail installment marine 
loans that are current and performing that were generated 
from the above described marine dealership.
