To the Board of Directors
FOUNTAIN POWERBOAT INDUSTRIES, INC.
Washington, North Carolina


We  have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of 
Fountain Powerboat Industries, Inc. as of September 30, 1996, and 
the  related consolidated statements of income and cash flows for the  
three months then ended.  All information included in these financial
statements is the representation of the management of Fountain Powerboat 
Industries, Inc.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the  
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.  A review of interim 
financial information consists principally of applying analytical  
procedures to financial data and making inquiries of Company personnel
responsible for financial and accounting matters.  It is substantially 
less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally 
accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression 
of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole.
Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that 
should be made to the consolidated financial statements  referred to 
above for them to be in conformity  with generally accepted accounting 
principles.

         (Unaudited - See Accountants' Review Report)



1.  Basis of Presentation.

      Although these statements have been reviewed by our independent
auditors, they are unaudited.  The statements reflect all adjustments,
in management's opinion, that are necessary to present fairly the
Company's financial position and results of its operations for the interim
periods presented. These adjustments are, for the most part, of a normal,
recurring nature.  It is suggested that this unaudited interim period
financial  information be read in conjunction with the Company's audited
financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996.


2.  Accounts Receivable.
As of September 30, 1996, accounts receivable were $2,463,680 net of the
allowance for bad debts of $27,000.  This represents an decrease of
$390,004 from the $2,853,684 in net accounts receivable recorded at June
30, 1996.  Of the $2,463,680 balance at September 30, 1996, $2,240,749 has
subsequently been collected as of November 6, 1996, and the remaining
$222,931 is believed to be fully collectible.



3.  Inventories.

     Inventories at September 30, 1996 and June 30, 1996 consisted
of the following:


                                   September 30,     June 30,
                                      1996            1996

4.  Revenue Recognition.

     The Company recognizes revenue when its products are sold to its
dealers.  At this time, all incidents of title pass to the buyer and the
Company receives payment, usually within two weeks, for the products
sold. Revenues are deferred only in instances where there is a direct
repurchase agreement with the dealer or where the Company has agreed to
pay floor plan interest for the dealer for a period of time beyond the
normal six month time alloted by its published sales promotion program.
At September 30, 1996 and June 30, 1996, there were no deferred sales or
cost of sales.


5.  Allowance and Qualifying Accounts.

   For the three months ended September 30, 1996, the Company adjusted
its allowance and qualifying accounts as follows:

                   Balance at   Charged to              Balance
                   Beginning    Cost and    Additions   at End of Period

                 ----------- ------------ ----------   ---------------          
  Allowance for

  Allowance for
     inventory
        values       100,000        -0-         -0-       100,000

                   ----------   ----------  ----------   ---------
        Total      $ 744,359    $  80,836   $ (80,836)  $ 744,359
                   ==========   ==========  ==========   =========


     In  management's opinion, the balances of the allowance and
qualifying accounts are adequate to provide for all reasonably
anticipated future losses.

6.  Commitments and Contingencies.

    The Company makes available through third-party finance companies floor
plan financing for many of its dealers.  Sales to participating dealers are
approved by the respective finance companies.  If a participating dealer
does not satisfy its obligations under the floor plan financing agreement
in effect with its commercial lender(s) and boats are subsequently
repossessed by the lender(s), then under certain circumstances the Company
may be required to repurchase the repossessed boats if it has executed a
repurchase agreement with the lender(s).  At September 30, 1996, the
Company had a total contingent liability to repurchase boats in the event
of dealer defaults and if repossessed by the commercial lenders amounting
to approximately $6,400,000.  The Company has reserved for the reasonably
anticipated future losses it might incur upon the repossession and
repurchase of boats from commercial lenders.  At September 30, 1996,  the
allowance for losses on boat repurchases was $207,359.

     Additionally, the Company regularly pays a portion of dealers'
interest charges for floor plan financing for up to six months.  Such
charges amounting to $113,000 for the first three months of Fiscal 1997 are
included in selling expenses in the accompanying statement of operations.



7.  Transactions with Related Parties.

     The Company paid or accrued the following amounts for services
rendered or for interest on indebtedness to related parties:

                                          Three Months Ended

     At September 30, 1996 the Company had travel advances and
other receivables from employees in the amount of $19,065, of
which $500 was due from an officer of the Company.

           (Unaudited - See Accountants' Review Report)





8.  Income Taxes.

     The Company has available at September 30, 1996, unused operating
loss carryforwards of approximately $1,324,147 which may be applied
against future taxable income and which expire in various years through
2009. The amount and ultimate realization of the benefits from the
operating loss carryforwards for income tax purposes is dependent, in
part, upon the tax laws in effect, the future earnings of the Company,
and other future events, the effects of which cannot be determined.
Because of the uncertainty surrounding the realization of the loss
carryforwards the Company has established a valuation allowance equal to
the tax effect of the loss carryforwards, and, therefore, no deferred tax
asset has been recognized.  The net deferred tax assets are approximately
$1,255,088 and the net deferred tax liabilities are approximately
$893,349 as of September 30, 1996, respectively, with an offsetting
valuation allowance of approximately $361,739  resulting in a change in
the valuation allowance of approximately $662,406 for the three month
period ended September 30, 1996.



9.  Stock Options.

   At September 30, 1996 there were stock options held by officers and
directors of the Company for 420,000 shares atprices ranging from $5.375
to $7.000 per share.  None of these stock options were exercised in the
first quarter, however, the Chief Financial Officer exercised a portion
of his incentive stock options for 15,000 shares at $5.50 per share in
the month of October, 1996.



10. Earnings Per Share.

     The computations of primary and fully diluted earnings per share
amounts are based upon the weighted average number of outstanding common
shares during the periods, plus, when their effect is dilutive,
additional shares assuming the exercise of certain vested stock options,
reduced by the number of shares which could be purchased from the
proceeds from the exercise of the stock options assuming they were
exercised.

11. Subsequent Event.

    The Company acquired Mach Performance, Inc. of Lake Hamilton,
Florida on October 8, 1996.  The acquisition was effective as of October
11, 1996. Mach Performance, Inc. principally manufactures stainless
steel propellers for Fountain Powerboats, Inc. and many other customers.
Mach Performance, Inc.  has foundry and finishing capabilities that will
permit it to manufacture other products used by Fountain Powerboats,
Inc., in addition to the propellers.  The purchase price was $1,041,250
and was paid to the shareholder of Mach Performance, Inc. by the
issuance of 85,000  new restricted common shares of Fountain Powerboat 
Industries, Inc. common stock valued at its fair market price on October 11,
1996, of $12.25 per share.

   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations
                     and Financial Condition




Results of Operations.

      The net profit for the first quarter of Fiscal 1997 was
$1,335,389, or $.42 per share.  This compares to a net profit amounting
to $431,329, or $.14 per share, for the first quarter of the prior
year.

      Net sales were $12,320,373 for the first quarter of Fiscal 1997
as compared to $8,999,524 for the first quarter of the prior year.
Unit sales volume for the first quarter of Fiscal 1997 was 110  boats
as compared to 107 boats for the first quarter of last year.

      For the first quarter of Fiscal 1997, the gross margin on sales
was $3,247,114 (26.36%) as compared to $1,645,904 (18.29%) for the
first quarter of the prior fiscal year.

      Selling expenses were $984,044 for the first quarter of Fiscal
1997 as compared to $777,651 for the first quarter of last year.  Most
of the increase for Fiscal 1997 was in magazine advertising and racing
expense.

      General and administrative expenses were $749,812 for the first
quarter of Fiscal 1997 as compared to $360,333 for the first quarter of
last year.  Most of the increase for Fiscal 1997 is for additional
executive compensation and increased travel expense.

      Interest expense for the first quarter of Fiscal 1997 was $159,053
as compared to $199,453 for the first quarter of last year.  The
decrease in interest expense is due to lesser overall indebtedness and
to a lesser rate paid on indebtedness to a major supplier.

      Other non-operating income for the first quarter includes
consulting revenues from a vendor earned by  Mr. Fountain and assigned
to the Company amounting to $65,000.  This compares to consulting
revenues amounting to $125,556 for the first quarter of last year.  The
decrease is from renegotiation of Mr. Fountain's consulting contract
with the vendor.


                              -14-

Financial Condition.

    The Company's cash flows for the first quarter of Fiscal 1996 are
summarized as follows:


         Net cash provided by operating activities...$ 2,131,806
         "   "   used in investing activities.......   (628,067)
         "   "   used in financing activities.......   (340,076)
                                                     -----------               
         Net increase in cash........................$ 1,163,663
                                                     ===========
      This net increase compared to a $262,720 net decrease for the
first quarter of the prior fiscal year.

      Cash used in the first quarter of Fiscal 1997 to acquire
additional property, plant, and equipment (investing activity) amounted
to $628,067 of which $477,506 was for plugs, molds, and other product
tooling.

      For the remainder of Fiscal 1997 and beyond, the Company expects
to generate sufficient cash from operating activities in order to meet
its needs and obligations.  Management believes that the Company's sales
and production volume will continue to grow with a commesurate increase
in net earnings and cash flow.  Most of the Company's cash resources
will be used to maintain and improve its plant and equipment, for new
product tooling, and to repay existing indebtedness.  The Company does
not expect to pay any dividends to shareholders for the forseeable
future.

     During Fiscal 1995, MetLife Capital Corporation agreed to amend the
Company's financial ratio requirements.  The Company is now in compliance 
with the new MetLife financial ratio requirements and expects to remain in 
compliance with the ratio requirements.  The Company has made timely payment
of all amounts owed to MetLife and none of the indebtedness to MetLife, or 
any other parties, is in arrears.


Cautionary Statement for Purposes of "Safe Harbor" Under the
Private Securities Reform Act of 1995.

   The Company may from time to time make forward-looking statements,
including statements projecting, forecasting, or estimating the Company's 
performance and industry trends.  The achievement of the projections, 
forecasts, or estimates contained in these statements is subject to certain 
risks and uncertainties, and actual results and events may differ materially
from those projected, forecasted, or estimated.
                              -15-
<PAGE>



      The applicable risks and uncertainties include general economic and
industry conditions that affect all businesses, as well as, matters that
are specific to the Company and the markets it serves.  For example, the
achievement of projections, forecasts, or estimates contained in the
Company's forward-looking statements may be impacted by national and
international economic conditions; compliance with governmental laws and
regulations; accidents and acts of God; and all of the general risks
associated with doing business.

      Risks that are specific to the Company and its markets include but
are not limited to compliance with increasingly stringent environmental
laws and regulations; the cyclical nature of the industry; competition in
pricing and new product development from larger companies with substantial
resources; the concentration of a substantial percentage of the Company's
sales with  a few major customers, the loss of, or change in demand from,
any of which could have a material impact upon the Company; labor
relations at the Company and at its customers and suppliers; and the
Company's single-source supply and just-in-time inventory strategies for
some critical boat components, including high performance engines, which
could adversely affect production if a single-source supplier is unable
for any reason to meet the Company's requirements on a timely basis.
