NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION

      Cypress Equipment Fund II, Ltd., (the "Partnership"), a
Florida limited partnership, was formed November 13, 1991, for the
purpose of acquiring and leasing transportation, manufacturing,
industrial and other capital equipment.  The Partnership was funded
with limited partner capital contributions and commenced operations
on June 22, 1992.  The Partnership will terminate on December 31,
2015, or sooner, in accordance with the terms of the Limited
Partnership Agreement.  The Partnership has received Limited and
General Partner capital contributions of $36,469,000 and $2,000,
respectively.

      Cypress Equipment Management Corporation II, a California
corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cypress Leasing
Corporation, is the Managing General Partner; RJ Leasing - 2, Inc., 
a Florida corporation and a second tier subsidiary of Raymond James
Financial, Inc., is the Administrative General Partner; and Raymond
James Partners, Inc., a Florida corporation and a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Raymond James Financial, Inc., is the other General
Partner.

      Cash distributions, subject to payment of the equipment
management fees, and profits and losses of the Partnership shall be
allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General
Partners.  Once each Limited Partner has received cumulative cash
distributions equal to his capital contributions, an incentive
management fee equaling 4% of cash available for distributions will
be paid to the General Partners.  When each Limited Partner has
received cumulative cash distributions equal to his capital
contributions plus an amount equal to 8% of adjusted capital
contributions per annum, an incentive management fee equaling 23% of
cash available for distributions will be paid to the General
Partners.

NOTE 2 - NOTES PAYABLE

      A significant amount of the rental equipment acquired by the
Partnership is pledged at time of purchase as collateral for the
notes payable.

      During the quarter, $4,900,000 was drawn down against a
$10,450,000 credit facility issued by the CIT Group increasing the
total outstanding under this credit facility to $6,800,000.  Under
the terms of the agreement, voluntary prepayments cannot be made
until after March 1, 1997 and the loan must be repaid in 1999.

  Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial     
           Condition and Results of Operations

      Results of Operations

      Rental income increased from $1,622,806 for the three months
ended March 31, 1995, to $2,000,741 for the three months ended March
31, 1996.  This increase resulted from terminations and sales during
the intervening period which reduced revenues by $513,177, the
purchase of equipment during the period increased revenues by
$942,582.  Interest income decreased for the three months ending
March 31, 1995 as compared to 1994, because the Partnership had a
smaller average balance of cash available for investment.

      Interest expense increased from $91,636 for the three months
ended March 31, 1995, to $239,071 for the three months ended March
31, 1996.  This increase primarily resulted from a higher average
level of debt during the period.  Management fee expense decreased
from 1995 due to the calculations for two leases purchased after
March 31, 1995 being based on the cash received by the Partnership
instead of the revenue recognized by the Partnership.  Depreciation
expense increased for the three months ended March 31, 1996 versus
1995, because the Partnership had a larger depreciable basis of
equipment due to purchases in the intervening period.

      The net effect of the above revenue and expense items resulted
in a net income of $684,857 for the three months ended March 31,
1996, compared to $755,982 for the three months ended March 31,
1995.

      During the three months ended March 31, 1996, the Partnership
incurred $4,900,000 of additional borrowing to establish an escrow
account for the purchase of a 40% interest in a partnership.  The
purchase price will be approximately $10,500,000 including
acquisition fees of approximately $290,000.

      Liquidity and Capital Resources

      The primary sources of funds originating in the three months
ended March 31, 1996, were $1,731,064 of cash provided by
operations, sales proceeds of $110,500, and $4,900,000 of additional
borrowing.  These sources and Cash and Cash Equivalents as of
December 31, 1995, were used to make a deposit into escrow of
$4,670,400, notes payments of $1,099,114, cash distributions of
$920,933, and to pay  operating expenses.  As of March 31, 1996, the
Partnership had $3,229,286 of Cash and Cash Equivalents.  The
equipment portfolio is comprised of eight leases which are
classified as operating leases and two leases which are classified
as full-payout leases.<PAGE>

           Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
           Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)


      Liquidity and Capital Resources (Continued)

      In the opinion of the General Partners there are no material
trends, favorable or unfavorable, in the Partnership's capital
resources and the resources will be sufficient to meet the
Partnership's needs for the foreseeable future.  The General
Partners expect to make additional equipment purchases.

      Short-term liquidity requirements consist of funds needed to
make distributions and meet commitments for investments in
equipment, administrative expenses, and debt retirement.  These
short-term needs will be funded by Cash and Cash Equivalents at
March 31, 1996, anticipated future borrowings, and rental income and
sales proceeds in the current period.

      In the opinion of the General Partners, the Partnership will
have, through rental income and equipment sales proceeds, funds or
sources of funds to remain liquid for the expected life of the
Partnership.  The General Partners are not aware of any trends that
significantly affect the Partnership's liquidity.

      The cash balance at March 31, 1996, was $3,229,286.  The
Partnership had a net income of $684,857 for the three months ended
March 31, 1996.  After adjusting for depreciation and amortization,
and the changes in operating assets and liabilities, net cash
provided by operating activities was $1,731,064.  Cash used by
investing activity was $4,670,400 for an escrow deposit for the
purchase of a 40% interest in a partnership.  Cash provided by
financing activities consisted of proceeds from notes payable in the
amount of $4,900,000.

      The Partnership anticipates that Cash and Cash Equivalents at
December 31, 1995, and funds from operations in 1996 will be
adequate to cover all 1996 operating contingencies.
