1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND PARTNERSHIP MATTERS
   ------------------------------------------------------------------

   Description of the Partnership
   ------------------------------

   Tower Park Marina Investors L.P., (formerly PS Marina Investors I),a
   California Limited Partnership (the "Partnership"), was organized under the
   California Revised Limited Partnership Act, pursuant to a Certificate of
   Limited Partnership filed on January 6, 1988 to acquire, own, and operate and
   to a lesser extent, develop marina facilities.

   The General Partners in the Partnership are Westrec Investors, Inc., a
   wholly-owned subsidiary of Westrec Properties, Inc. ("Westrec"), and B. Wayne
   Hughes, a shareholder of Westrec until September 1990.  Effective March 1,
   1997, the limited partners approved the substitution of Tower Park Marina
   Operating Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Westrec Financial, Inc.,
   for Mr. Hughes.

   The Partnership was formed to sell a maximum of 12,000 units of limited
   partnership interest at $5,000 per unit ($60,000,000).  The General Partners
   have contributed a total of $1,000.  On November 27, 1989, the Partnership's
   offering was terminated with 4,508 units issued resulting in $22,540,000 of
   limited partner funds being raised (before commission discount of $3,000
   granted to an investor).  Half of each Limited Partner's total capital
   contribution was deferred.  The final installment was due on August 1, 1990
   and $76,000 of such deferrals remain outstanding.

   Use of Estimates
   ----------------

   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
   accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
   that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying
   notes.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.

   Net Realizable Value Reserve
   ----------------------------

   As of September 30, 1998 the Partnership owns Tower Park Marina.  Because of
   continued operating cash flow deficits the Partnership allowed the Chandlers
   Landing Yacht Club to be sold at a trustee foreclosure sale on February 6,
   1996, and allowed the lender to foreclose on the ThunderBoat and Banyan Bay
   Marinas on September 30, 1996.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND PARTNERSHIP MATTERS
   ------------------------------------------------------------------
   (CONTINUED)
   -----------

   Net Realizable Value Reserve (continued)
   ----------------------------------------

   A net realizable value reserve of $2,193,000 was established at December 31,
   1995 to reduce the carrying value of Tower Park Marina to its then estimated
   realizable value.  No addition to this reserve was considered necessary at
   September 30, 1998 or during 1996 and 1997 since the Partnership believes
   current cash flows are sufficient to recover the carrying value of the
   marina.

   Offering and Organization Costs
   -------------------------------

   Costs incurred in preparing Partnership documents, prospectuses and any other
   sales literature, costs incurred in qualifying the units for sale under
   federal and state securities laws and costs incurred in marketing the units
   have been charged to the limited partners' equity to the extent the total
   does not exceed 5% of the gross proceeds of the offering.  The amount by
   which these organization and registration costs exceeded 5% of the gross
   proceeds of the offering were borne by Westrec Investors, Inc.

   Cash Distributions
   ------------------

   The General Partners have an interest in Cash Flow from Operations (as
   defined) and Cash from Sales or Refinancings (as defined).  No distributions
   have been made since 1991.

   Allocations of Net Income or Loss
   ---------------------------------

   As set forth in the Partnership Agreement, net loss shall be allocated 99% to
   the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners.  Net income shall
   generally be allocated to Partners in proportion to their cash distributions.

   Earnings Per Unit
   -----------------

   Per unit data is based on the weighted average number of the Limited
   Partnership units outstanding during the period; 4,508.

   Tower Park Marina is stated at cost to the Partnership less net realizable
   value reserve.  Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis.
   Depreciable lives for the major asset categories are as follows:

2. TOWER PARK MARINA
   -----------------

   Tower Park Marina includes the purchase price of the property and related
   acquisition and closing costs.  The Partnership paid an acquisition fee of 6%
   of the contract purchase price of the property, plus a development fee of 6%
   of the cost of improvements made.  Capitalized as a cost of Tower Park Marina
   were development fees paid to Westrec of $4,000 and $4,000 for the nine
   months ended September 30, 1998, and for the year ended December 31, 1997,
   respectively.  At September 30, 1998 and  December 31, 1997 the investment in
   Tower Park Marina was comprised of the following:

</TABLE>

   Tower Park Marina is not generating satisfactory levels of cash flows and
   cash flow projections do not indicate significant improvement in the near
   term.  These matters raise substantial doubt about the Partnership's ability
   to recover the carrying value of its assets (not withstanding the writedown
   of the marina facility to its net realizable value) and to continue as a
   going concern.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments to
   reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification
   of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result
   from the possible inability of the Partnership to continue as a going
   concern.

</TABLE>

   From September 1991 through 1994, no payments were made on the note secured
   by Tower Park Marina and the Partnership was involved in various negotiations
   with the lender, a financial institution, and its successor, Resolution Trust
   Corporation ("RTC"), to restructure or otherwise settle the note.  In January
   1995, the RTC sold the note as part of a sales initiative to a third party.
   The note was immediately sold to an affiliate of the individual general
   partner.  The Partnership has entered into an option agreement to purchase
   the note from its current holder for its cost ($1,700,000) plus carrying
   costs which expired on April 10, 1996.  In connection with the substitution
   of Tower Park Marina Operating Corporation for Mr. Hughes as General Partner,
   Mr. Hughes entered into a new option agreement with the Partnership, which
   allows the Partnership to purchase the note secured by Tower Park Marina, for
   Mr. Hughes' cost, $1,700,000, plus $68,000 of accrued unpaid interest.  As of
   December 31, 1997, the note was reflected on the Partnership's balance sheet
   at its face value of $6,715,000 with an additional $2,598,000 being shown as
   accrued unpaid interest (based on the option agreement to acquire the note,
   its fair value is deemed to be the option price of $1,700,000).  The option
   was initially for a one year period expiring on February 28, 1998.  The
   Partnership extended the option agreement for one year in February by paying
   Mr. Hughes $50,000, which was applied as a reduction in the principal amount
   due.  The Partnership may extend the option agreement for one additional year
   by making an additional $50,000 principal payment in February 1999.

3. NOTES PAYABLE (CONTINUED)
   -------------------------

   In October 1993, the Partnership discontinued making payments on its
   $2,000,000 note payable secured by ThunderBoat Marina and Banyan Bay Marina.
   In September 1994, the lender initiated an action seeking to foreclose on the
   marinas.  In January 1995, the Partnership entered into a forbearance
   agreement in which the lender agreed to forbear action to foreclose until
   July 15, 1995 as long as the Partnership made monthly payments to the lender
   of $4,000.  As part of the forbearance agreement, the Partnership agreed that
   if the note was not paid in full or otherwise acceptably restructured prior
   to July 15, 1995, the lender would be entitled to a judgment of foreclosure.
   In July 1995, the Partnership and the lender agreed to extend the forbearance
   period until February 15, 1996.  The extension required an initial fee of
   $30,000 and monthly payments, beginning in September 1995, of $25,000, which
   were applied to accrued unpaid interest.  In February 1996, the lender
   offered to extend the forbearance period if the monthly payments were
   increased to $40,000.  Due to the continued operating cash flow deficits of
   the properties and the inability to sell the Banyan Bay Marina, the
   Partnership allowed the Lender to foreclose on the properties on September
   30, 1996.

   The Partnership's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon
   their ability to exercise their option on the note secured by Tower Park
   Marina and improved operational cash flow.  The financial statements do not
   include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the
   recoverability and classification of assets or  the amounts and
   classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of
   the Partnership to continue as a going concern.

4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
   --------------------------

   The Partnership has an agreement with Westrec Marina Management, Inc., an
   affiliate of Westrec, to manage the day-to-day operations of the marina for a
   fee equal to 6% of the marina's monthly gross revenues (as defined).
   Management fees for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, were
   $97,000 and $106,000, respectively.

4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (CONTINUED)
   --------------------------------------

   In connection with funding the Partnership's operating deficits funds have
   been borrowed from Westrec.  These borrowings accrue interest at the prime
   rate plus 1% (9.50% at September 30, 1998).  Total interest paid or accrued
   to Westrec for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 was $124,000
   and $89,000, respectively.

5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
   -----------------------------

   In September 1994, Mr. Leaman, the prior owner of ThunderBoat and Banyan Bay
   Marina, filed suit alleging that the Partnership had failed to pay him
   $1,100,000 of additional compensation relating to the Partnership's purchase
   of Thunderboat and Banyan Bay Marinas.  In connection with the purchase of
   these properties from Mr. Leaman in 1989, the Partnership entered into an
   employment agreement that provided that Mr. Leaman would be entitled to earn
   a bonus, payable over three years.  The maximum bonus that Mr. Leaman could
   have earned was $1,100,000.  Mr. Leaman resigned from his employment in less
   than one year.  Mr. Leaman has alleged that the bonus is actually just
   deferred consideration due from his sale of the properties to the
   Partnership.  This case was settled in October 1998, and reserves of $250,000
   have been established to cover the legal fees and settlement costs associated
   with the case.

   In November 1991, contamination was discovered in the area surrounding a fuel
   storage tank at Tower Park Marina.  Environmental consultants have been
   engaged to perform sampling to determine the extent of the contamination.
   Presently, sufficient data has not been obtained to estimate the cost of
   remediation, consequently no loss accrual has been made in the financial
   statements.

   The Partnership operates a portion of Tower Park Marina on approximately 14
   acres of waterfront property under a lease with the California State Land
   Commission (the "CSLC Lease").  The CSLC Lease expires on December 31, 1998,
   and provides that it may be renewed for two successive periods for 10 years
   each.  The CSLC Lease provides for an annual rental based on gross receipts,
   with a minimum annual rental of $5,000 payable in advance.  Rent expense
   associated with the CSLC Lease is included in cost of operations and was
   $31,000 for each of the nine month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997.

   Annual minimum lease payments for the year ending December 31, 1998 are
   $5,000.

   The Partnership's operations for the nine months ended September 30, 1998
   consist of Tower Park Marina in the Sacramento  San Joaquin Delta near
   Sacramento, California.  As of September 30, 1998, Tower Park Marina had the
   following occupancies:

   For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, revenues for Tower Park Marina
   declined $201,000 to $1,867,000.  The decline was primarily due to a $156,000
   decrease in restaurant revenues, and a $47,000 decline in slip rentals.
   These declines in revenue are due to a decline in activity at the property
   and a reduction in the restaurant's hours of operation.  Overall the
   property's net operating income improved $146,000 to $309,000 for the nine
   months ended September 30, 1998.

   The Partnership's net loss of $821,000 for the nine months ended September
   30, 1998 includes $93,000 of depreciation and amortization, a non-cash item,
   a decline of $188,000 in cash flow over the same period of a year ago.
   Contributing to the Partnership's net loss was $250,000 in legal fees and
   settlement costs associated with the Leaman litigation and a $74,000 increase
   in interest expense.

   Liquidity and capital resources
   -------------------------------

   Since its inception in 1988 the Partnership has operated at a deficit.  These
   deficits have been partially covered by advances from the General Partners
   and cash reserves.  In addition, the Partnership had discontinued making debt
   service payments on substantially all of its notes.  As a result, all of the
   Partnership's properties were lost to foreclosure, with the exception of
   Tower Park Marina.

   From 1991 to 1994, the Partnership was involved in various negotiations with
   the lender, a financial institution, and its successor, Resolution Trust
   Corporation ("the RTC"), to restructure or otherwise settle the note secured
   by Tower Park Marina.  In January 1995, the RTC sold the note as part of a
   sales initiative to a third party.  The note was immediately sold to an
   affiliate of the individual general partner.  The Partnership entered into an
   option agreement to purchase the note from the affiliate at its cost
   ($1,700,000) plus carrying costs.  The option agreement originally expired on
   April 10, 1996, and has been extended until February 28, 1999.

   The Partnership's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon
   their ability to exercise their option on the note secured by Tower Park
   Marina and improved operating results at Tower Park Marina.

   Between 1988 and 1998, the Partnership received advances from affiliates of
   the General Partners.  These advances were utilized to acquire properties,
   make capital improvements to the properties, cover operating deficits, and to
   a lesser extent, make distributions to the partners.
