activities subject to, federal or state securities laws, or finding any

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
CRT used working capital in the amount of $57,498.22 to
acquire 221,147 shares of Common Stock at $.26 per share on trade date May 22,
1997 for settlement on May 28, 1997. John Levin used personal funds in the
amount of $7,578.22 to acquire 29,147 shares of Common Stock from CRT at $.26
per share on trade date June 2, 1997 for settlement on June 5, 1997. No part of
the purchase price in either transaction was represented by funds or other
consideration specially borrowed or otherwise specifically obtained for the
purpose of acquiring, holding, trading or voting the securities.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
CRT acquired the Common Stock of Resort in the
over-the-counter market in the ordinary course of business for investment
purposes. John Levin acquired the Common Stock of Resort from CRT in a privately
negotiated transaction. The Reporting Persons may seek to pursue courses of
action which they believe would maximize the value of Resort for the Benefit of
Resort's shareholders. Such courses of action may include seeking the
resignation or removal of certain directors from Resort's Board of Directors and
seeking the election or appointment of qualified independent directors to
Resort's Board of Directors. In this regard, due in part to the below named
persons having served as directors of Resort and as Chairman and a member,
respectively, of Resort's Audit Committee during and prior to June 1995, the
Reporting Persons believe a conflict of interest may exist which may inhibit
such persons' ability to serve as fiduciaries on behalf of Resort shareholders.
Therefore, the Reporting Persons presently do not intend to vote their proxies
in favor of John R. Young, Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive
Officer, President and Chief Financial Officer of Resort, and Daniel D. Lane,
Director, Secretary, Treasurer and Chief Accounting Officer of Resort. However,
the Reporting Persons reserve the right to change their intentions in the
future.

(b) As of the date hereof, CRT beneficially owns 192,000
shares (4.6%) of Common Stock and is deemed to have sole power to vote or direct
the vote of and to dispose or direct the disposition of all such 192,000 shares
of Common Stock.
As of the date hereof, John Levin beneficially owns 29,147
shares (0.7%) of Common Stock and is deemed to have sole power to vote or direct
