1.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
      -------------------------------------------

   A. Financial Statements
      --------------------

      The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been
      prepared by Westerbeke Corporation ("the Company"), without audit,
      pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
      Commission. While certain information and footnote disclosures normally
      included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
      accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to
      such rules and regulations, the Company believes that the disclosures
      made herein are adequate to make the information presented not
      misleading. It is recommended that these condensed statements are read in
      conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
      included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
      ended October 26, 1996.

      In the opinion of the Company, all adjustments, consisting only of normal
      recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position
      of Westerbeke Corporation and Subsidiary as of July 26, 1997, the results
      of their operations for the three and nine months ended July 26, 1997 and
      July 27, 1996, and the cash flows for the nine months then ended, have
      been included.

   B. Basis of Presentation
      ---------------------

      The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
      the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Westerbeke International,
      Inc. (a Foreign Sales Corporation). All significant intercompany
      transactions and accounts have been eliminated. Westerbeke International,
      Inc. has been inactive since fiscal year 1987.

      In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
      Financial Accounting Standard No. 128, "Earnings per Share" (FAS 128).
      FAS 128 supersedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 15 and
      specifies the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements for
      earnings per share. FAS 128 is effective for financial Statements for
      both interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 1997 and early
      application is not permitted. Accordingly, the Company will apply FAS 128
      for the quarter ended January 24, 1998 and restate prior period
      information as required under the statement. The Company does not expect
      the adoption of FAS 128 to have a material impact on reported earnings
      per share.

      In June 1997, the FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards No. 130,
      "Reporting Comprehensive Income" and No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments
      of an Enterprise and Related Information," which are effective for fiscal
      years beginning after December 15, 1997. The Company is currently
      evaluating the effects of these new standards.

2.    Inventories
      -----------

      The Company uses the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method to value inventory.

      Inventories are comprised of the following:

                                           $ 6,214,300     $ 5,428,000
                                           ===========================
</TABLE>

      The Company has estimated both the year-end inventory levels and the
      inflation/deflation that will occur during the fiscal year.

      The Company anticipates an increase in its LIFO valuation account as of
      October 25, 1997. Accordingly, the Company has recorded an increase of
      $45,000, on a pro rata basis, in the LIFO reserve during the first nine
      months of fiscal 1997. During the first nine months of 1996, the Company
      recorded, on a pro rata basis, an increase of $40,000 in the LIFO
      reserve. Inventories would have been $1,190,600 higher at July 26, 1997
      and $1,145,600 higher as of October 26, 1996, if the first- in, first-out
      (FIFO) method had been used. Inventory cost determination on the FIFO
      method approximates replacement or current cost.

                 Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis
                Of Financial Condition and Results Of Operations


Results of Operations -
- -----------------------

Net sales increased by $889,100, or 15%, during the third quarter of fiscal
1997 and increased $3,593,500 or 23% for the first nine months of fiscal 1997,
as compared to the same periods in fiscal 1996. The increase in third quarter
net sales is primarily attributable to higher unit volume of the Company's
marine generator products and higher spare parts revenues. The increase in net
sales for the first nine months of fiscal 1997 is primarily the result of
higher unit volume of the Company's propulsion engine products and generator
sets as well as higher spare parts revenues.

Gross profit increased $240,100 or 17% during the third quarter and increased
$899,000 or 26% for the first nine months of fiscal 1997, as compared to the
same periods in fiscal 1996. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit was 24%
during the third quarter of fiscal year 1997 as well as fiscal 1996, and
remained constant at 23% for the nine months ended July 26, 1997 compared to
the same period ended July 27, 1996.

Operating expenses increased $210,400 or 24% for the third quarter and $612,800
or 24% for the first nine months of fiscal 1997, as compared to the same
periods in fiscal 1996. Research and development costs have increased due to
the addition of personnel and higher costs related to achieving compliance with
federal and state exhaust emission requirements. Selling and administrative
expenses have increased primarily due to higher advertising, marketing,
warranty and personnel costs.

Net interest expense increased $38,000 during the third quarter and increased
$81,900 for the first nine months of fiscal 1997, as compared to the same
periods in fiscal 1996. The increase in interest expense in the third quarter
and the nine months ended July 26, 1997 is primarily due to interest expense
incurred on the line of credit and term loans with State Street Bank and Trust
Company.

For the third quarter ended July 26, 1997, the Company reported net income of
$310,100, compared to a net income of $306,400 for the same period in fiscal
1996. For the nine months ended July 26, 1997, the Company reported net income
of $687,100, as compared to net income of $563,400 for the nine months ended
July 27, 1996. The increase in net income for the third quarter and for the
nine months of fiscal 1997 is primarily attributable to the increase in net
sales for the period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

During the first nine months of fiscal 1997, net cash used by operations was
$26,300, compared to net cash provided by operations of $90,000 for the first
nine months in fiscal 1996. The decrease in cash flow from operations is
primarily attributable to increases in inventory and accounts receivable offset
partially by an increase in accounts payable for the nine-month period ended
July 26, 1997, as compared to the same period in fiscal 1996. The rise in
inventories is primarily attributable to the increased demand and the timing of
engine purchase order receipts. The rise in accounts receivable is attributable
to the increase in net sales for the period ended July 26, 1997.

During the nine months ended July 26, 1997, the Company purchased property,
plant and equipment of $481,300. The Company plans to spend approximately
$60,000 more on equipment during the remainder of the year.

The Company has a $4,000,000 Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with
State Street Bank and Trust Company, collateralized by inventory, accounts
receivable and general intangibles. The amount of the facility available under
the Credit Agreement was increased on April 25, 1997 from $3,000,000 to
$4,000,000. At July 26, 1997, the Company had $1,320,000 in outstanding
borrowings under the Credit Agreement and approximately $499,600 committed to
cover the Company's reimbursement obligations under certain letters of credit.
The Credit Agreement expires on March 31, 1998.

On January 23, 1996, the Company entered into a $500,000 revolving line of
credit agreement (the "Revolving Line of Credit") and term loan facility with
State Street Bank and Trust Company, collateralized by various emission testing
and product development equipment and subject to working capital and equity
covenants. On July 31, 1996, the Revolving Line of Credit terminated and
automatically converted into a five-year term loan in the principal amount of
$491,600 bearing a fixed interest rate of 8.96%. At July 26, 1997, the
outstanding principal amount was approximately $400,000.

On April 25, 1997, the Company entered into a $300,000 revolving line of credit
agreement (the "1997 Revolving Line of Credit") and term loan facility with
State Street Bank and Trust Company, collateralized by various items of
emission testing and product development equipment and subject to working
capital and equity covenants. On June 30, 1997, the 1997 Revolving Line of
Credit terminated and automatically converted into a five-year term loan
bearing a fixed interest rate of 8.75%. At July 26, 1997, the outstanding
principal amount was approximately $295,000.

Management believes cash flow from operations and borrowings available under
the Credit Agreement will provide for working capital needs, principal payments
on long-term debt, and capital and operating leases through fiscal 1997.

Domestic inflation is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's
operations.

The cost of engine blocks and other components is subject to foreign currency
fluctuations (primarily the Japanese yen). Exchange rate fluctuations have had
a minimal impact on the Company during the first three fiscal quarters of 1997.
