PART I
ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
General
W-J International, Ltd. (the "Company") was incorporated as a Delaware
corporation in February 1987 under the name of Duo, Inc. When the Company merged
with Wetjet International, Ltd. in 1988, it changed its name to Wetjet
International, Ltd. Following the Transaction described below, the Company
changed its name to W-J International, Ltd.
Prior to March 31, 1993, the Company manufactured and marketed personal
watercraft under the Company's registered trademark, "WETJET." During the fiscal
years ended September 30, 1991, 1992 and 1993, working capital shortages
required the Company to minimize operating expenses and reduce inventory. The
working capital shortages were caused by the death and sickness of its two
distributors in 1989, which in turn caused the demand by the Company's bank for
repayment of the Company's bank line of credit.
Due to its financial condition, during fiscal year 1993 the Company
sold substantially all of its assets (the "Transaction") to Tennessee
Acquisition Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of MasterCraft Boat Company
(hereinafter referred to as "Mastercraft"). As consideration for the sale of its
assets, the Company received $310,000 on March 31, 1993 and an additional
$166,667 on each of June 30, 1993, September 30, 1993 and December 31, 1993.
Mastercraft's principal executive offices are located in Vonore, Tennessee.
Substantially all of the proceeds from the Company's sale of assets were used to
pay existing debts of the Company. During fiscal years 1993 and 1994, the
Company negotiated with creditors to settle all existing debts.
The Company's current operations consist primarily of renting land and
a building to a single lessee under a short-term rental agreement.
The Company has satisfied substantially all of its debts and continues
to evaluate alternatives in order to improve the Company's financial condition,
including merger and acquisition opportunities. There is no assurance that the
Company will be successful in obtaining such opportunities. If a merger or
acquisition opportunity does arise, the Company's value as a partner in a merger
or other business combination will rest primarily upon the potential public
market for the Company's shares.
<PAGE>
The Product and Manufacturing
The Company currently manufactures and sells no products.
Prior to its sale of substantially all of its assets, the Company's
principal product was the WETJET watercraft, a recreational watercraft designed
to be ridden by one or two people (the "WETJET"). The Company offered five
models of the WETJET--the"432," the "Special Edition 432," the "Sport II,"
"Sport II Spirit," and the "Sport." WETJET watercraft produced after June 30,
1988 were powered by the Brut engine, manufactured by Koronis Parts, Inc.
("Koronis"), of which Edward Webb and Kathy Webb own all of the outstanding
stock. Koronis also sold certain assets to Mastercraft, including the Brut
engine technology.
The Market and Competition
The Company currently has no competition since it is producing no
products.
Sales and Distribution
The Company did not distribute any products domestically or
internationally during fiscal years 1994 through 1997.
Patents and Trademarks
The Company owns no patents or trademarks.
Employees
Since January 1994, the Company has had no employees.
Environmental Compliance
Management believes that the Company properly disposed of all
production material or liquids that may be considered an environmental hazard
prior to the Transaction, when all production ceased.
Government Regulations
The Company is not subject to any material governmental regulations on
its business.
<PAGE>
ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
The Company's assembly operations, warehousing and other operations
prior to the Transaction were conducted in a combined manufacturing, warehouse
and office facility located in Paynesville, Minnesota, which facility is owned
by the Company, subject to a mortgage. The building has approximately 28,000
square feet. The Company also owns another building which was used to
manufacture its fiberglass parts. This facility is currently being rented to a
single lessee under a short-term rental agreement. This building has
approximately 9,700 square feet.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
None.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders during the
fourth quarter of fiscal 1997.
PART II
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER
MATTERS
Currently, there is no public trading market for Company stock. In the
past the Company's Common Stock was traded on the local over-the-counter market
in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The following table sets forth the range of closing
bid prices per share for the Company's Common Stock for the periods indicated as
reported by Metro Data Company, Minneapolis, Minnesota.

There is no record of the volume of transactions in the purchase and sale of the
Company's securities, and such market volume may be insignificant. The Company
has not declared any dividends in the past, and it is not anticipated that the
Company will declare any dividends in the foreseeable future. As of December 15,
1997, the Company had approximately 227 shareholders.
<PAGE>
ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
Results of Operations
Fiscal 1997 v. 1996
Rental Income. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 1997, the
Company's rental income decreased to $62,400 from fiscal 1996 rental income of
$87,237. The decrease in rental income from fiscal 1996 to 1997 was due
primarily to the fact that the one-year lease agreement that the Company had
with one of its lessees was not extended beyond its March 31, 1997 termination
date. The Company has not yet replaced this renter.
Operating Expenses. The Company's operating expenses increased 77.8% to
$36,484 in fiscal 1997 from $20,518 in fiscal 1996. As a percentage of rental
income, the Company's operating expenses were 58.5% and 23.5% in fiscal 1997 and
1996, respectively.
General and administrative expenses increased 299.6% from fiscal 1996
to fiscal 1997 due to the loss of its primary renter. Certain expenses which had
been paid by the renter the Company now pays. Interest expense decreased
$16,844, or 62.8%, due to the fact that the Company has only one interest
bearing debt remaining, that being the mortgage on its primary facility. In
addition, the Company had no adjustment related to the extinguishment of debt as
it had in fiscal 1996.
Discontinued Operations. The Company experienced no loss or gain from
discontinued operations in fiscal 1997 as compared to a loss of $13,785 in
fiscal 1996.
Net Income (Loss). In fiscal 1997, the Company experienced net income
of $25,916 as compared to net income in fiscal year 1996 of $150,407. The
decrease in net income from fiscal 1996 to 1997 was due primarily to the fact
that in 1997 the Company had no recorded gain related to the extinguishment of
debt as had occurred in fiscal 1996. In addition, the Company had lost one of
its renters for the last six months of fiscal 1997.
Fiscal 1996 v. 1995
Rental Income. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 1996, the
Company's rental income increased to $87,237 from fiscal 1995 rental income of
$81,954. The increase in rental income from fiscal 1995 to 1996 was due
primarily to the fact that the one-year lease agreement beginning April 1, 1996
called for an increase in the rent per square foot from $2.65 to $3.05.
Operating Expenses. The Company's operating expenses decreased 66.8% to
$20,518 in fiscal 1996 from $61,776 in fiscal 1995. As a percentage of rental
income, the Company's operating expenses were 23.5% and 75.4% in fiscal 1996 and
1995, respectively.
General and administrative expenses decreased 73.7% from fiscal 1995 to
fiscal 1996 due primarily to decreased activity. Interest expense decreased
$12,138, or 31.1%, due to the forgiveness of debt in 1996.
<PAGE>
Discontinued Operations. The Company experienced a loss from
discontinued operations in fiscal 1996 of $13,785, as compared to a gain of
$62,641 in fiscal 1995. This loss was the result of no settlements that resulted
in cash receipts as occurred in previous years.
Net Income (Loss). In fiscal 1996, the Company experienced net income
of $150,407 as compared to net income in fiscal year 1995 of $138,975. The 1996
net income figure resulted primarily from the settlement with Wetworks, Ltd.
which resulted in a $97,473 gain on extinguishment of debt. The Company's net
loss in fiscal 1994 resulted directly from the Company's extremely curtailed
operations and limited rental income.
Inflation
Inflation has not had a material impact on the Company's results of
operations.
Seasonality
Due to the Company's discontinuation of operations, seasonality no
longer affects its business.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's working capital increased to $164,415 at September 30,
1997 from $149,220 at September 30, 1996 primarily due to maturity of
certificates of deposit and a receivable related to rent that did not exist in
fiscal 1996.

Westergaard was a controller of Flower City Stores, a Minneapolis-based patio
supply, casual furniture and Christmas decoration store.
Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the
Company's officers and directors, and persons who own more than ten percent of a
registered class of the Company's equity securities, to file reports of
ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "SEC"). Officers, directors and greater than ten-percent shareholders are
required by SEC regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all Section
16(a) forms they file.
Based solely on its review of the copies of such forms received by it,
the Company believes that, during fiscal year 1997, all officers, directors and
greater than ten-percent beneficial owners complied with the applicable filing
requirements, except that Edward Webb and Kathy Webb each reported one
transaction late.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997 AND 1996
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization
W-J International, Ltd. (the Company or W-J) was formed on March 19,
1985 to produce, market and distribute personal recreational
watercraft. As discussed in Note 6, the Company discontinued its
recreational watercraft operations effective December 1992. The
Company's current operations consist primarily of renting land and
buildings.
Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
Concentrations
The Company's cash is deposited with a single financial institution
which at times could exceed the federally insured limit. The Company
has not experienced any losses on its cash deposits in the past.
The Company's major source of revenue was rental income from a lessee.
The lease expired March 1997. Rental income under this lease was
$50,400 in 1997 and $75,237 in 1996. The Company's current source of
revenue is rent income of $1,000 per month under a month-to-month
lease.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include
cash on hand, cash in bank and marketable securities with maturities of
three months or less.
Property
Property is stated at cost. Depreciation on buildings is computed using
the straight-line method over their estimated useful life of 31 years.
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as
incurred and expenditures for renewals and betterments are capitalized.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Net Income Per Common Share
Net income per common share is computed by dividing the net income by
the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the
year. There are no outstanding common stock equivalents.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under FAS #109. Income taxes are
provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial
statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred income
taxes. Deferred income taxes relate to differences between the
financial and tax bases of certain assets and liabilities. Temporary
differences that result in significant deferred income taxes are net
operating loss carryforwards.
2. Certificates of Deposit
Certificates of deposit at September 30, 1997 consist of seven certificates
of deposit which are classified as available for sale and are stated at
cost plus accrued interest which approximates market value. The
certificates of deposits earn interest at rates ranging from 5.0% to 6.1%
and mature from December 1997 through March 1998.
3. Related Party Transactions

Less current portion (23,782) (20,936)
-------- --------

1998 $ 23,782
1999 25,100
2000 31,100
--------
Total $ 79,982
========
The mortgage note payable to bank is extended on a bi-annual basis with
payments remaining consistent. It is the lender's intention not to
accelerate the repayment schedule during 1998. Accordingly, the current
portion related to this note has been determined based on the repayment
schedule provided by the bank.

Utilization of net operating
loss carryforwards (8,000) (20,000)
--------- ---------
$ - $ -
========= =========
Net operating loss carryforwards were utilized to offset tax expense of
approximately $25,000 in 1996 related to the net gain from extraordinary
item and discontinued operations.
At September 30, 1997, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards for
tax purposes of approximately $1,995,000, which expire through 2007. The
Company has fully reserved the tax benefit of the net operating loss
carryforwards because the likelihood of the realization of the benefit
cannot be established.
The Internal Revenue Code contains provisions which may limit the net
operating loss carryforwards available if significant changes in
stockholder ownership of the Company occur.
Deferred income taxes consisted of the following:
1997 1996
--------- ---------
Deferred income tax assets:
Net operating loss carryforwards $ 597,000 $ 605,000

6. Discontinued Operations
In December, 1992, the Company entered into an agreement to dispose of its
recreational watercraft operations. Effective March 31, 1993, the Company
sold certain assets for $810,000 in cash with final settlement in October,
1993. The sale resulted in a pre-tax gain of $410,993. The loss from
discontinued operations was $-0- in 1997 and $13,785 in 1996.

In April, 1996, Wetworks, Ltd. accepted a settlement of $150,000 as full
and final satisfaction of a note payable of $153,998 and accrued interest
of $93,475, which resulted in the Company recognizing a $97,473 gain on
extinguishment of debt. As part of the satisfaction, 569,250 shares of
Company common stock owned by an officer of the Company and held by
Wetworks, Ltd. as security of the note payable, were transferred back to
the officer.

9. Fair Values of Financial Instruments
The estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments at
September 30, 1997, and the methods and assumptions used to estimate such
fair values, were as follows:
The fair values of cash and cash equivalents and certificates of
deposit approximate the carrying amounts because of the short maturity
of those financial instruments.
The fair value of long-term debt approximates the carrying amount, as
the interest rate approximate current interest rates.
