                    THE SOUTHSHORE CORPORATION

                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                      December 31, 1997
                        (Unaudited)

  (1) Summary of Accounting Policies
      -------------------------------
     A summary of significant accounting policies consistently applied in the 
preparation of the accompanying financial statements follows:

      (a) General
          -------
      The Southshore Corporation ("Company") was incorporated under the laws 
      of Colorado on March 26, 1990 for the purpose of engaging in any lawful
      business.  The company operates a waterpark in southeast Denver metro 
      area.

      (b) Unaudited Financial Statements
          ------------------------------
      The accompanying financial statements have been prepared by the 
      registrant without audit and are the responsibility of the Company's 
      management.  Management is of the opinion that all adjustments that 
      should be made to the accompanying financial statements in order for 
      them to present fairly the financial position, results of operations 
      and cash flows for the periods presented have been made.

      Management has elected to omit substantially all the footnote
      disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles.

     The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with 
     the Company's audited financial statements as of March 31, 1997.  The 
     results of operation for the period ended December 31, 1997 are not 
     indicative of the operating results for the full year.

      (c) Property and Equipment
          ----------------------
      Property and equipment are stated at cost.  The original park water
      features are depreciated using a straight line method based on a 7 year 
      estimated useful life.  A 20 year estimated useful life on a straight 
      line basis is utilized on the buildings.  Park improvements since 1994 
      have been depreciated using a modified accelerated cost recovery method 
      over 31.5 years for buildings and 7 years for equipment.

                              -7-
<PAGE>
  (2) Liquidity and Capital Resources
      -------------------------------      
      See Management's Discussion for disclosure related to liquidity and 
      capital and the related contingencies and commitments.

  (3) Net Profit and Loss Per Common Share
      ------------------------------------
      Net profit and loss per common share for the three month period ended
      December 31, 1997 and 1996 has been computed based on the weighted 
      number of shares outstanding during the respective periods.

  (4) Bank Line of Credit -Note to President
      --------------------------------------
     On April 25, 1994, the Company issued a five year promissory note in the 
     amount of $400,000 to its President.  The note was issued pursuant to an 
     arrangement whereby the President became personally obligated and 
     personally secured a $400,000 bank line of credit, the proceeds of which 
     were made available to the Company.  The Company is required to pay 
     interest on the line at the bank's prime rate.  The Company's President 
     has the right to purchase common stock at $2.25 per share in an amount 
     equal to what he is at risk on the bank line of credit.  On default
     of the note he may convert the outstanding balance to common stock at 
     $1.00 per share.  At December 31, 1997, the balance was $120,699 as
     compared to $356,000 on March 31, 1997.  The reduction was funded from
     operations.  The $120,699 due on December 31, 1997 was recast as 
     long term since the note is not due until April 25, 1999.

  (5) 10% Secured Notes -$970,000
      ---------------------------
      The Company was required to pay down the principal balance of its 
      outstanding 10% Secured Notes by 25% on September 30, 1994, June 30, 
      1995, June 30, 1996 and June 30, 1997 respectively.  The Company failed 
      to make most of these payments, however it has obtained deferrals from 
      holders of $735,000 in these notes as to payments of principal through 
      September 30, 1997.  The Company failed to make these payments due 
      September 30, 1997.  Additionally, the trustee under the Indenture 
      relating to these notes resigned as trustee effective November 4, 1994.

  (6) Property Tax Lien
      -----------------
      First Union National Bank (New Jersey) holds a property tax certificate 
      from  Arapahoe County, Colorado in the amount of $444,371 plus interest
      of $130,492, at January 31, 1998, on the Company's 16-acre water park 
      property.  The tax certificate draws interest at 13% per annum and may 
      be converted into a tax deed at the request of First Union.  The
      Company would have the right to redeem the certificate for a period of 
      approximately four months from the time First Union requests a deed by 
      paying the full amount of the property tax certificate plus accrued 
      interest (a total of $574,864 at Janaury 31, 1997).  As of the date of 
      this report First Union had not requested Arapahoe County to issue a 
      tax deed.

     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
     ---------------------------------------------------------------
                       RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                       ---------------------
Financial Condition

     At December 31, 1997, working capital was a negative $1,881,236 as 
compared to a negative $2,173,322 at March 31, 1997.  The principal reasons 
for the working capital shortfalls are unpaid and accrued property taxes of 
$542,284, accrued interest on property taxes, trade payables, and $955,000 in 
notes currently in default.  See "Liquidity and Capital Resources" below.

     At December 31, 1997, the Company's shareholders' equity was a negative 
$14,654, down from $203,391 at March 31, 1997, due entirely from operating 
losses for fiscal 1998.

0Results of Operations -Three Months Ended December 31, 1997 Compared to Three 
Months Ended December 31, 1996.

     Revenues for the three months were minimal for both comparison periods 
as any revenues recorded are residule revenues received from the previous 
summer.

     Total off-season operating expenses were vitually the same for both 
comparison periods.  Any difference per expense category is due generally to 
bookkeeping timing differences and adjustments made in a period.  The 
exceptions are salaries and payroll taxes were down 3.5% in 1997 over 1996.  
Property taxes reflect a 56% decrease due to mill-levy reductions for tax 
year 1997 taken in the three months ending December 31, 1997.  Depreciation 
and amortization remained basically the same for the two periods.  The 
interest expense for the period is consistent with the debt.


Results of Operations -Nine Months Ended December 31, 1997 Compared to Nine 
Months Ended December 31, 1996.

     Revenues for the current nine months were down 8% compared to the same 
period in 1996.  This decrease is accounted for almost entirely by the 
monsoon rains that hit the Denver area during the prime attendance periods of 
mid-July thru mid-August.

     Total operating expenses were down over 3% as compared to the comparable 
period in 1996.  Salaries were down 10%.  Payroll taxes decreased 23% due to 
the salary reductions and an adjustment made due to credits issued by our 
workers compensation carrier.  Advertising expenditures were up over 32% as 
management attempts to increase exposure of the park.  The cost of operating 
supplies, repair and maintenance, chemicals and utilities was down 10% as the
company continues to refine its need for these products and services.  The 
increase in outside services expense is due to past legal fees relieved in 
the nine months ending December 31, 1996.  Property taxes show a $20,803 
reduction for tax year 1997 over tax year 1996 due to mill-levy reductions by 
Arapahoe County, Colorado.  Depreciation and amortization remained basically
the same for the two periods.  The interest expense for the period is 
consistent with the debt.

                               -9-

<PAGE>

     Management expects the Company to experience an additional approximate 
$275,000 in operating expenses (including depreciation and amortization) and 
interest expenses during the remainder of the fiscal year ended March 31, 
1998.  A non-cash item, $140,000 in depreciation and amortization constitutes 
approximately 51% of these operating expenses and interest expenses.  Property 
taxes of $25,000 and interest expense of $50,000 constitute approximately
9% and 18% of such anticipated expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     At December 31, 1997, the Company had $1,884,850 in current obligations, 
primarily composed of notes payables and accrued and past due property taxes. 
Notes payable of $220,000 due June 30, 1997 and $735,000 due September 30, 
1997 are currently in default.  These notes are secured by a first mortgage 
on portions of the waterpark property.  The Company's waterpark property is 
subject to a property tax lien that was recently issued to a banking 
institution in New Jersey.  For details see Note 6 to the financial 
statements.  The Company could be in a position in the near future where it 
would have to pay the full amount of this lien or loose title to the property.
The Company's current position improved by $294,169 through a combination
of paying down the note to the president by $235,301 and reclassifying 
the remainder of this debt, $120,699, as long term debt.  See Note 4 to
financial statements.  

     The Company has appealed its property tax evaluations with Arapahoe 
County, Colorado and the State of Colorado with only moderate success.  The 
Company will continue exploring possibilities in hopes of reducing its annual 
property tax assessment, however there is no assurance that it will be 
successful.

     Management is currently considering alternatives to relieve its debt 
obligations.  These include a sale/leaseback of the property, liquidation of 
the company, a merger or sale of the waterpark property.

     The Company anticipates that it will not have to seek additional outside 
capital for off-season expenses and start up costs for the 1998 summer season.
