NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1996
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with the instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore, do not include all
disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of the Partnership's
financial position, results of operations and statements of cash flows
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles as set forth
in the Partnership's form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 1995.
In management's opinion, all adjustments have been made to the financial
statements necessary for a fair presentation of interim periods
presented.
NOTE 2 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The General Partner and their affiliates are also entitled to
reimbursement of costs (including amounts of any salaries paid to
employees or its affiliates) directly attributable to the operation of
the Partnership that could have been provided by independent parties.
Costs amounting to $792,025 were incurred during the first quarter of
1996. This compares to $677,950 of costs that were incurred during the
first quarter of 1995. The increase in cost is primarily due to
increases in payroll costs, health insurance premiums and reservation
expense. An affiliate company, South Seas Resorts Company, Inc., pays
the payroll and related benefits and charges them back to the Pink
Shell. South Seas Resorts Company, Inc. also provides room reservation
services for the resort. During the quarter, the Partnership incurred
$208,260 in management fees in accordance with the Partnership
agreement. This compares to $184,024 in management fees which were
incurred during the first quarter of 1995.
NOTE 3 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Liquidity
The Partnership's cash position, including interest bearing deposits at
March 31, 1996, was $746,777. This compares to its cash position of
$164,966 at December 31, 1995. The Partnership's cash position at March
31, 1995, was $1,251,238.
PAGE 6<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Liquidity - Continued
For the three months ended March 31, 1996, the Partnership's cash
increased $581,811. The increase in cash was due to cash flow from
operations of $999,878; cash outlays for capital improvements of
$123,765; cash outlays for partner distributions of $202,359; and net
repayment of long term debt of $91,943.
The Partnership's total investment in properties for its portfolio at
March 31, 1996, was $22,532,691. This compares to its total property
investment of $22,420,917 at December 31, 1995. Other than as
discussed herein, there are no known trends, demands, commitments,
events or uncertainties, that in management's opinion, will result or
are reasonably likely to result in the registrant's liquidity increasing
or decreasing in any material way.
Capital Resources
The Partnership has entered into long term leases with 42 condominium
unit owners. This enables the Partnership to include the 42 units in
its resort rental operation. The Partnership pays a minimum annual
rental of $25,000 in 12 equal monthly installments to each unit owner
for a total minimum annual rental of $1,050,000. In addition, the
Partnership pays the owner an amount by which 42.5% of the annual gross
rental income generated by the lessee from the unit exceeds the amount
of annual base rent paid. These leases expire at various times between
December 31, 2000, and December 31, 2005.
The Partnership paid down $91,943 of principal on long term borrowings
during the three month period. Partnership debt as of March 31, 1996,
was $9,223,351 as compared to $9,315,294 as of December 31, 1995.
Also during the quarter, the Partnership paid $123,765 for improvements
at the Pink Shell in order to refurbish the units and to meet Best
Western requirements.
Results of Operations
The Partnership had net income of $958,563 for the three months ended
March 31, 1996. This compares with net income of $775,269 for the three
month period ended March 31, 1995. The increase in net income is due to
revenues increasing by $372,497, property operating expenses increasing
by $259,303, real estate taxes decreasing by $114, interest expense
decreasing by $89,348 and depreciation and amortization increasing by
$19,360.

Results of Operations - Continued
Pink Shell's revenues increased $404,093 due to more units being
available to rent. Room revenue increased $383,778, store revenue
decreased $7,606, and other revenues increased $34,116. Walsingham
Commons revenues decreased $31,596 due to a decrease in occupancy.
Interest income decreased $6,198 due to a smaller amount of funds being
invested in short term Government Securities.
Property operating expenses have increased for the quarter by $258,303.
The Primary increases are in the operations of the Pink Shell.
Guaranteed payments to owners have increased $160,661 compared to the
first quarter of 1995. This is due to the lease back agreements signed
with the 42 unit condominium owners. Marketing expenses have increased
$13,252 due to more units to market, and insurance has increased
$17,653. Other operating expense increases are in relation to the
increased occupancy and room revenue. The resort has moved to daily
housekeeping in order to meet guest expectations and Best Western
affiliation requirements.
Real Estate Taxes have decreased $114 to reflect a lower assessment at
Walsingham Commons.
Interest expense decreased by $89,348 due to the Partnership having a
lower amount of debt.
Depreciation and amortization have increased $29,870 because of
additional assets being depreciated and loan costs being written off.
As of March 31, 1996, Walsingham Commons Shopping Center was 85% leased
which includes the vacated Tandy Corporation space as occupied since
they continue to pay rent. The center is actually 65% occupied.
Management expects to continue to receive full lease payments until
either a negotiated settlement or sub-lease is agreed to.
