ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997 AND
1996.

         The  following  discussion  and  analysis  is  intended  to address the
significant  factors  affecting  the  Partnership's  results of  operations  and
financial  condition.  It is designed to provide a more comprehensive  review of
the  operating  results and  financial  position  than could be obtained from an
analysis of the  financial  statements  alone.  It should,  however,  be read in
conjunction with the financial statements included elsewhere herein.


General

         In 1997,  the  Partnership's  primary  sources  of  revenue  were  from
homesite sales which  accounted for 27 percent for the first nine months of 1997
compared with 47 percent for 1996, and marina  operations which accounted for 45
percent  of the  Partnership's  revenues  for the first  nine  months of 1997 as
compared to 39 percent in 1996.

         Homesite Sales
         During the nine month period ended  September 30, 1997 the  Partnership
sold 16 homesites  which compares to 27 homesites  sold in 1996.  There were six
homesites  sold in  Bridgewater  compared with four  homesite sold in 1996.  The
Partnership sold 10 homesites from Cambridge  compared with 20 homesites sold in
1996.  The  Partnership  did not sell any  homesites  in Morse  Overlook in 1997
compared with four homesite sold 1996.

         During the three month period ended  September 30, 1997 the Partnership
sold two homesites  compared to eight homesites sold during the third quarter of
1996.  There were two homesites sold in Bridgewater  during the third quarter of
1997 which compares with three sold in 1996. The  Partnership  sold no homesites
from Cambridge or Morse Overlook  during the third quarter of 1997 compared with
three homesites in Cambridge and two homesites in Morse Overlook sold during the
third quarter of 1996.

         The  Partnership  is the general  partner of Marina I LP ("Marina  I"),
which has developed  homesites in Cambridge.  During the nine month period ended
September 30, 1997 Marina I sold 16 homesites  from  Cambridge as compared to 16
homesite  sales in 1996.  Marina I recorded  $104,600 in revenue during the nine
month period ended September 30, 1997 as its share from the  Partnership's  sale
of a homesite  that was  partially  owned by Marina I, as  compared  to $136,000
recorded in 1996.

         Marina I sold five  homesites in Cambridge  during the third quarter of
1997, as compared to one homesite sale during 1996.

         The Partnership received  distributions of $77,000 from Marina I in the
nine month period ended September 30, 1997 as compared with $398,000 received in
the first nine months of 1996.



Results of Operations
         Nine Months ended September 30
         1997 Compared to 1996. Net earnings  increased by $195,000 in 1997 from
1996. This increase was primarily due to increased equity earnings from Marina I
of $521,000,  an increase in earnings after direct costs of $157,000 from Marina
operations, and an increase in gains on the sale of investment land of $662,000.
Such  increases  were  partially  offset by a decrease in earnings  from sale of
homesites of $975,000.

         Earnings from homesite sales were $1,087,000 in 1997, which compares to
$2,062,000 in 1996.  During the three month period ended  September 30, 1997 the
Partnership  sold a block of homesite land for $399,000 and realized a profit of
$90,000.  Without  considering  such bulk  sale,  there was an  increase  in net
earnings  per  homesite  sale in  1997  as a  result  of the  sale  of a  higher
percentage of waterfront homesites.

         The Partnership  recognized  $886,000 as its share of the earnings from
Marina I in 1997,  compared to $365,000 in 1996.  Such increase is the result of
an increase in homesite  sales to  $2,049,000 in 1997 as compared to $617,000 in
1996.

         During  1997,  the  Partnership  sold  commercial   property  held  for
investment at Geist  Crossing for an aggregate  $1,198,000,  which resulted in a
gain of $662,000.

         Earnings from marina operations increased in 1997 over 1996 by $159,000
as a result of revenues  increasing  by  $538,000.  This  increase  results from
increases in all significant areas of the Marina operations.

         General and  administrative  expenses  increased by $104,000 in 1997 as
compared  to 1996.  The  principal  increase  relates to an increase in property
taxes of $37,000. All other elements of G&A expense were generally consistent in
1997 with 1996.

         On April 17, 1997,  the  Partnership  made a cash  distribution  to the
partners of record on April 3, 1997, of $3.25 per unit of partnership  interest,
for a total of  $2,194,000.  This compares to a cash  distribution  of $3.25 per
partnership unit on April 18,1996.

         Three Months ended September 30
         1997 Compared to 1996. Net earnings  decreased by $474,000 in 1997 from
1996. This was primarily due to decreased homesite sales of $1,108,000 resulting
in a  decrease  after  related  direct  costs of  $991,000.  This  decrease  was
partially offset by an increase in equity earnings from Marina I of $144,000, an
increase in earnings after direct costs of $26,000 from Marina  operations,  and
an increase in gains on the sale of investment land of $566,000.

         Earnings from homesite  sales were $98,000 in 1997,  which  compares to
$1,089,000 in 1996.  During  October 1997 the  Partnership  sold four  homesites
generating sales revenue of $593,000 compared with two homesites sold in 1996 at
$176,000 in sales revenue.

         The Partnership  recognized  $211,000 as its share of the earnings from
Marina I in 1997,  compared to $67,000 in 1996 . Such  increase is the result of
an  increase  in  homesite  sales to  $175,000 in 1997 as compared to $74,000 in
1996.  During  October  1997 the Marina I sold two  homesites  generating  sales
revenue of $144,000  compared with three  homesites  sold in 1996 at $309,000 in
sales revenue.

         Earnings from marina operations  increased in 1997 over 1996 by $26,000
as a result of  revenues  increasing  by $93,000.  This  increase  results  from
increases in all significant areas of the Marina operations.

         General and  administrative  expenses  increased  by $75,000 in 1997 as
compared  to 1996.  The  principal  increase  relates to an increase in property
taxes of $37,000. All other elements of G&A expense were generally consistent in
1997 with 1996.
