                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                                      OF
                             RESULTS IN OPERATIONS

 Six Months Ended June 30, 1998

     The net operating loss of ($852,000) for the first six months of 1998 
is $3,509,000 less than the net operating income of $2,657,000 for the same 
period for the prior year. Net income after taxes for 1998 is projected to be 
approximately $200,000 or approximately 76.10% less than the $837,000 net 
income after taxes in 1997.

     The decrease in net income through the first six months of 1998 
is primarily due to the increase in the loan loss provision expense to 
$2,900,000 in the first half of 1998 as compared to $660,000 for the first 
half of 1997. This large increase of 394% in the loan loss provision expense 
is attributable to the substantial amount of marine installment loans required 
to be charged off in the first half of 1998 which required the company to 
increase its allowance for loan losses to comply with regulatory requirements. 
This reserve expense increased the Company's loan loss reserve account to 
$7,054,000 at June 30, 1998 from $5,236,000 at December 31, 1997. The Company
had a total of approximately $2,456,000 of repossessed marine collateral 
at the end of the first half of 1998. The establishment of a reserve for 
repossessed marine collateral apart from th $7.054 million in the loan 
loss reserve account was necessitated to cover liquidation expenses. A 
provision for other marine assets of $1,437,000 was expensed in the first 
half of 1998 as compared to no such expense in the first half of 1997. 

   There has been the following significant changes in charge offs, 
recoveries, non-accruing or non-performing loans in the first 
half of 1998:

  	An increase from the first quarter to the second quarter of 1998 of 
approximately $225,000 (6.83%)in loans secured by real estate in a non 
accrual status, an increase of approximately $2,744,000 (58.51%) in 
commercial and industrial loans past due 30 through 89 days and still 
accruing, and an increase of approximately $472,000 (10.71%) in commercial 
and industrial loans in a non accrual status. A portion of these 
delinquent loans are secured by real estate and other collateral. 

	Total charge offs for the first six months of 1998 totaled $2,214,000 
while total recoveries during the same period were $1,132,000. These 
charge-offs included a total of $2,040,000 in charge offs of loans to 
individuals for household, family and other personal expenditures which 
includes installment marine retail loans.

	The Company has delinquent retail installment marine loans as follows: 
$2,666,000 30-59 days delinquent, $684,000 60-89 days delinquent all of 
which are still accruing interest, $230,000 90 days to 119 days delinquent. 
There are approximately $25,172,000 of retail installment marine loans that 
are current and performing per their terms.

	The foregoing discussion contains forward-looking statements that 
involve risks and uncertainities. The Company's actual results could 
differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking 
statements as a result of certain factors, including the performance of 
the Company's marine loan portfolio and the banking industry performance 
in general.
