Mako Marine  International,  Inc. (the  "Company") is engaged in the manufacture
and sale of offshore fishing and pleasure boats.


Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting  principles for interim financial information
and with instructions to Form 10- QSB and Regulation S-B.  Accordingly,  they do
not include all of the information and footnotes  required by generally accepted
accounting  principles  for  complete  financial  statements.  In the opinion of
management,   all   adjustments   (which  include  only  the  normal   recurring
adjustments)  considered  necessary for a fair  presentation have been included.
For further  information,  refer to the audited financial  statements as of June
29, 1996 and footnotes thereto filed on form 10-KSB (SEC File No. 0-26618) filed
with the Securities and Exchange  Commission.  The results of operations for the
nine months ended March 29, 1997 are not  necessarily  indicative of the results
of operations for the full year.


Net Loss Per Common Share

Pursuant to Securities and Exchange  Commission Staff Accounting  Bulletin Topic
4-D,  stock  issued  and  stock  options  granted  have  been  included  in  the
calculation of weighted average shares of common stock  outstanding for the nine
months ended March 29, 1997.


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  reported  amounts  of  assets  and  liabilities  at the date of the
financial  statements and the reported  amounts of revenues and expenses  during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Stock Purchase

On January  16,  1997,  the Company  sold to Tracker  Marine,  L.P.,  a Missouri
limited  partnership  ("Tracker")  6,400,000  newly  issued  shares  (the  "Mako
Shares") of the  Company's  common  stock,  having a par value of $.01 per share
(the "Mako Common Stock"), for a purchase price consisting of cash in the amount
of $4,140,000 and assets relating to Tracker's saltwater boat business. The Mako
Shares,  together with Tracker's  contemporaneous  purchase of 930,000 shares of
Mako Common Stock from CreditAmerica Venture Capital, Inc. resulted in Tracker's
acquisition  of a total of 7,330,000  shares of Mako Common Stock,  representing
approximately  80.9% of the then outstanding  shares of Mako Common Stock. Under
the  terms of the  Agreement  pursuant  to which  Mako  sold the Mako  Shares to
Tracker (the "Stock  Purchase  Agreement"),  the Company is required to issue to
Tracker  additional  shares of Mako  Common  Stock if, at any time  prior to the
expiration of the ninetieth day following  August 23, 2000,  the market price of
the Mako Common Stock reaches  certain levels during a period of ten consecutive
trading days. See, "Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of  Operations-Overview,"  below. Also, the Stock Purchase Agreement
provides  for an option on the part of Tracker to acquire  additional  shares of
Mako Common  Stock at $1.50 per share,  if and to the extent  that,  options and
warrants to acquire  shares of Mako Common Stock which were  outstanding  on the
closing  date of the sale of the Mako  Shares to Tracker  are  exercised  in the
future.  See  "Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial  Condition and
Results of Operations-Overview," below.

                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                       CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


This report contains certain  forward-looking  statements  within the meaning of
Federal  securities  laws which,  while  reflective of  management's  beliefs or
expectations,  involve certain risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond
the control of the Company.  Accordingly,  the Company's  actual results and the
timing of certain events could differ  materially from those  discussed  herein.
Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences  include, but are not
limited to, the significant losses incurred by the Company during the first nine
months  of  fiscal  1997,  those  factors  discussed  in the  section  captioned
"Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis of Financial  Condition  and Results of
Operations" below and the "Risk Factors"  contained in the Company's  prospectus
dated August 23, 1995.

Results of  Operations  for Three  Months and Nine  Months  Ended March 29, 1997
Versus Three Months and Nine Months Ended March 30, 1996

Overview

On January 16,  1997,  the Company sold to Tracker  6,400,000  newly issued Mako
Shares for a purchase  price  consisting of cash in the amount of $4,140,000 and
assets  relating to  Tracker's  saltwater  boat  business,  including  Tracker's
manufacturing  facility  located in Punta Gorda,  Florida,  its  "Seacraft"  and
"Silver King" brands of off-shore  fishing boats and the exclusive  right over a
five-year  period to advertise at preferred  rates the Company's  saltwater boat
products in a catalog  published by an  affiliate  of Tracker  that  distributes
annually more than 40 million catalogs worldwide. The Mako Shares, together with
Tracker's  contemporaneous  purchase  of the  930,000  CAVC  Shares  from  CAVC,
resulted in Tracker's  acquisition of a total of 7,330,000 shares of Mako Common
Stock,  representing  approximately 80.9% of the then outstanding shares of Mako
Common Stock.

The Stock Purchase Agreement  provides,  among other things, that in addition to
the Mako Shares,  during the period  beginning on the Closing Date  (January 16,
1997) and  ending  90  business  days  following  the  exercise,  redemption  or
expiration of the Company's  publicly-traded  Redeemable  Common Stock  Purchase
Warrants,  the Company will issue to Tracker (i) 1,800,000 shares, if the market
price  of the Mako  Common  Stock  is  $5.00  or more  during  a  period  of ten
consecutive  trading days, (ii) an additional  1,800,000 shares, if the price of
the  Mako  Common  Stock is $6.00  or more  during a period  of ten  consecutive
trading days, and (iii) an additional  3,629,000  shares, if the market price of
the  Mako  Common  Stock is $7.00  or more  during a period  of ten  consecutive
trading days.  The  expiration  date of the  aforementioned  public  warrants is
August 23, 2000.

The Stock  Purchase  Agreement  also provides  Tracker with an option to acquire
additional  shares  of Mako  Common  Stock at $1.50  per  share.  The  option is
designed to permit  Tracker to  maintain  an 80%  interest in the Company to the

                                        8

<PAGE>
extent that  options and  warrants to acquire  shares of Mako Common Stock which
were  outstanding  on the Closing Date are  exercised  in the future.  There are
currently  outstanding options and warrants to purchase 3,622,900 shares of Mako
Common Stock,  which expire at varying  dates through 2001. 

As indicated  below,  the currently low sales level of the Company's  product is
not sufficient to support the Company's current fixed cost levels. Additionally,
certain   variable  costs  incurred  by  the  Company  in  connection  with  the
manufacture  of its products are high.  Management  believes that the additional
boat brands and the Company's  exclusive  catalog rights  discussed above should
result  in  increased  sales.  Management  further  believes  that  through  its
affiliation  with  Tracker,  certain  efficiencies  can be achieved and that the
Company could be able to obtain  certain  materials and  components  used in the
manufacture of its products from outside sources at lower prices.


Net Sales

The  Company's net sales for the quarter ended March 29, 1997 (the third quarter
of the fiscal year  ending June 28,  1997)  increased  by $185,597  (or 4.2%) to
$4,566,363  from  $4,380,766 for the  corresponding  quarter of the prior fiscal
year. This increase was  attributable to the addition of SeaCraft and SilverKing
sales amounting to approximately $235,000.

The Company's  net sales for the nine months ended March 29, 1997,  increased by
$56,254 or (0.4%) to $13,853,439 from $13,797,185 for the  corresponding  period
of the prior year.  This increase was  attributable  to the addition of SeaCraft
and SilverKing  sales,  as discussed  above,  offset by (i) industry wide slower
retail  sales;  and (ii)  manufacturing  delays in producing two new Mako models
during the first quarter (a 25 foot center console which replaced an older model
and a 33 foot center console).


Cost of Products Sold and Gross Profit

Gross  profit for the  quarter  ended March 29,  1997  decreased  by $154,165 to
$346,414  (7.6% of sales) from $500,579  (11.4% of sales) for the  corresponding
quarter of the prior fiscal  year.  This  decrease was due  primarily to certain
inefficiencies, discussed below.

Gross profit for the nine months ended March 29, 1997,  decreased by $440,552 to
$1,163,816   (8.4%  of  sales)  from   $1,604,368   (11.6%  of  sales)  for  the
corresponding  period of the prior year.  This  decrease is a result of: (i) the
spreading of fixed overhead costs over decreased production volumes;  (ii) labor
inefficiencies due in part to the unavailability of certain components and parts
during the winter  months;  and (iii)  inefficiencies  from the  start-up of the
SeaCraft and SilverKing lines.

The Company has reached an agreement in principle  with its supplier of outboard
motors with respect to certain  modifications to the current agreement with such
supplier,  including a revised pricing formula,  which agreement in principle is


                                        9

<PAGE>
subject to the execution by both parties of a definitive amendment.  The revised
pricing will likely result in a lower cost to the Company for its acquisition of
outboard motors, which is a major component of the Company's products.  Thus, it
is expected that the new pricing will have a substantial  positive impact on the
cost of products sold and resulting gross profit margins.  The  effectiveness of
the amendment,  including the new pricing formula, is expected to be retroactive
to January 16, 1997.

Operating  Expenses

Selling,  general and  administrative  expenses for the quarter  ended March 29,
1997  increased by $259,319 (or 18.7%) to  $1,648,538  from  $1,389,219  for the
corresponding  quarter of the prior fiscal year.  This increase is due primarily
to the expenses  resulting from the Tracker  transaction  (See  "Overview")  and
advertising costs for the SeaCraft and Silver King lines.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended March 29,
1997,  increased  $719,706  (or 20.7%) to  $4,193,433  from  $3,473,727  for the
corresponding  period  of the prior  year.  The  increase  is a result  of:  (i)
increased  sales  incentive  programs of $260,000 in the nine months ended March
29, 1997 compared to the nine months ended March 30, 1996;  (ii) higher  selling
and  administrative  salaries  of  approximately  $65,000;  (iii)  approximately
$250,000 in increased  warranty costs and reserve;  (iv) increased  professional
fees  amounting to  approximately  $80,000;  (v) general and  advertising  costs
associated  with the Seacraft and SilverKing  lines  amounting to  approximately
$230,000  (vi)  amortization  of  goodwill  associated  with the stock  purchase
amounting to approximately $30,000 and (vii) offsetting decreases in advertising
costs  of  approximately  $145,000  and  miscellaneous  costs  of  approximately
$50,000.

Other expenses for the nine months ended March 29, 1997 decreased by $157,011 to
$60,028 from  $217,039 for the  corresponding  period of the prior year when the
Company expensed loan costs of approximately  $170,000  associated with a bridge
loan.


Other Income and Expenses

During the nine months  ended March 29,  1997,  the Company  recorded a $100,000
provision relating to potential environmental issues discovered at the Company's
plant during the due diligence  review in  conjunction  with the Stock  Purchase
Agreement.  By  amendatory  Letter  Agreement  dated  January 16, 1997 among the
Company,  CAVC and  Tracker,  it was agreed  among the  parties  that CAVC would
deposit  in escrow  the sum of  $1,310,000  to secure  CAVC's  obligations  with
respect to any costs and expenses incurred in connection with remedial, clean-up
and other costs associated with the removal of any contamination in, on or under
the "Property"  (hereinafter  defined) to the extent required to meet regulatory
requirements (the "Remedial  Costs").  Under the terms of such amendatory Letter
Agreement, the Company is obligated to pay the first $100,000 of Remedial Costs.
Thereafter,  such  costs are paid in  consecutive  increments  of  $200,000  and
$50,000 by CAVC and the Company,  respectively,  until the Remedial  Costs reach
$1,710,000.  As a result  of the  foregoing,  the  Company  is  responsible  for
payments of up to $400,000 in respect of the first $1,710,000 of Remedial Costs,
and for such  amounts,  if any,  in excess  of  $1,710,000.  Additional  reports

                                       10

<PAGE>
received  by the  Company  from its  environmental  engineers  during  the third
quarter of fiscal  1997  appear to  confirm  management's  previously  disclosed
belief  that a  majority  of the  potential  contamination  on,  in or under the
Property  comes  from  off-site  sources,  and that the  Company  will not incur
material  losses as a result  of its  limited  obligation  with  respect  to the
Remedial  Costs.  Discussions  will be  held  with  the  Florida  Department  of
Environmental  Resources  Management to determine what if any remedial action is
appropriate.


Income Taxes

At March 29, 1997,  the Company had a net tax  operating  loss  carryforward  of
approximately  $8,650,000 to offset future taxable income.  Due to the ownership
change  caused by the IPO and the Tracker Stock  Purchase,  under Section 382 of
the  Internal  Revenue  Code,  the amount of net  operating  loss  carryforwards
originating prior to the date of the IPO (approximately $2,500,000) and prior to
the Tracker Stock Purchase, but after the IPO, (approximately  $5,450,000) which
may be utilized in any one year, is limited to approximately $800,000.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

Historically,  the  Company's  internally  generated  cash  flow  has  not  been
sufficient to finance its operations.

During August 1995, the Company completed an initial public offering (IPO) which
generated net proceeds of $5,307,423. The Company initially anticipated that the
IPO proceeds,  together with existing  resources and cash  generated from future
operations would be sufficient to satisfy the anticipated  cash  requirements of
the Company for 18 to 24 months from the date of the IPO.

On January 16, 1997,  the Company sold the Mako Shares to Tracker for a purchase
price  consisting  of cash, in the amount of  $4,140,000  and certain  assets of
Tracker  constituting  its  Saltwater  Boat  Business.  Reference is made to the
"Overview" section above for a more complete description of the transaction.

During the nine months ended March 29, 1997,  the Company  used  $2,113,546  for
operating activities,  $2,674,754 for investing activities, and was provided net
cash of $4,339,012 for financing activities.

The cash used by operating  activities  resulted  from the Company's net loss of
$3,417,190, and an increase in inventories and prepaid assets (such as insurance
and boat show costs) of $394,661 and $276,536,  respectively.  Cash was provided
by an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $406,913,  a decrease
in accounts  receivable  of $908,239  (also an  increase  in the  allowance  for
doubtful  accounts  of  $57,000)  and  depreciation  and  amortization  totaling
$602,689.

The cash used by financing activities resulted from the purchase of fixed assets
of $161,891 and purchase of marketable securities of $2,512,863.

                                       11

<PAGE>
The cash  provided by financing  activities  resulted from an issuance of common
stock with cash received of $4,140,000  and an increase in a due to affiliate of
$543,904.  Uses of cash  included  principal  payment  on debt  and  indemnities
totaling $344,892.

Management  believes  the cash  infusion  of  $4,140,000  from the common  stock
purchase of  $4,140,000  should be sufficient  to satisfy the  anticipated  cash
requirements  of the Company for 9 to 15 months,  thereby  affording the Company
sufficient time to increase sales levels and reduce expenses in order to operate
profitably. No assurance can be given, however, that the Company will be able to
increase  its sales and/or  reduce its costs to the extent  necessary to operate
profitably.

Part II. Other Information


Item 5.  Other Information

In connection with its due diligence  review,  certain  potential  environmental
issues  related to the  Property  were  discovered  and  additional  testing and
analysis is currently ongoing to determine the extent of such  contamination and
whether or not such  contamination  arises from on-site or off-site sources.  By
amendatory  Letter Agreement dated January 16, 1997 among the Company,  CAVC and
Tracker,  it was agreed among the parties that CAVC would  deposit in escrow the
sum of $1,310,000 to secure CAVC's  obligations  with respect to Remedial Costs.
Under the terms of such amendatory Letter Agreement, the Company is obligated to
pay the first  $100,000 of Remedial  Costs.  Thereafter,  such costs are paid in
consecutive  increments  of  $200,000  and  $50,000  by CAVC  and  the  Company,
respectively,  until the Remedial  Costs reach  $1,710,000,.  As a result of the
foregoing,  the Company is responsible for payments of up to $400,000 in respect
of the first  $1,710,000 of Remedial  Costs,  and for such  amounts,  if any, in
excess of  $1,710,000.  Additional  reports  received  by the  Company  from its
environmental  engineers  during  the third  quarter  of fiscal  1997  appear to
confirm management's  previously disclosed preliminary belief that a majority of
the  potential  contamination  on, in or under the Property  comes from off-site
sources,  and that the Company will not incur material losses as a result of its
limited obligation with respect to the Remedial Costs.  Discussions will be held
with the Florida Department of Environmental  Resources  Management to determine
what if any remedial action is appropriate.

In April,  1997,  the  Florida  Department  of  Revenue  rendered  a  Transferee
Liability Notice of Assessment and Jeopardy Finding to the Company alleging that
the Company,  as a transferee of Mako Marine,  Inc. ("Old Mako"),  is liable for
delinquent   sales  tax,   penalties   and   interest  of   $1,650,843.77   (the
"Assessment").  The sales tax liability  which is the subject of the  Assessment
was  incurred  by Old Mako prior to the  acquisition  by  CreditAmerica  Venture
Capital,  Inc. in August, 1994 of substantially all of Old Mako's assets through
a foreclosure  sale.  Based upon its  investigation  of this matter to date, the
Company  believes that it has  meritorious  defenses to any liability  under the
Assessment and intends to defend this matter vigorously.
