                    WESTERBEKE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY

                 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                 (Unaudited)

1.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
      -------------------------------------------

  A.  Financial Statements
      --------------------

      The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have
      been prepared by Westerbeke Corporation (the "Company"), without
      audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
      Exchange Commission.  While certain information and footnote
      disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
      accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
      condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, the
      Company believes that the disclosures made herein are adequate to make
      the information presented not misleading.  It is recommended that
      these condensed statements are read in conjunction with the
      consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the
      Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October
      23, 1999.

      In the opinion of the Company, all adjustments, consisting only of
      normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the
      financial position of Westerbeke Corporation and Subsidiary as of
      April 22, 2000, the results of their operations and the cash flows,
      have been included.

  B.  Basis of Presentation
      ---------------------

      The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts
      of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Westerbeke
      International, Inc. (a Foreign Sales Corporation).  All significant
      intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.

      In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.
      133 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities"
      (SFAS 133).  The statement requires companies to recognize all
      derivatives as either assets or liabilities with the instruments
      measured at fair value. The accounting for changes in fair value gains
      and losses depends on the intended use of the derivative and its
      resulting designation.  The statement is effective for all fiscal
      quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. The Company
      does not believe the adoption of SFAS 133 will have a material impact
      on the financial statements.

  C.  Earnings per Share
      ------------------

      Basic income per common share is computed by dividing income available
      to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares
      outstanding for the period.  Diluted income per share reflects the
      maximum dilution that would have resulted from the exercise of stock
      options.  Diluted income per share is computed by dividing net income
      by the weighted average number of common shares and all dilutive
      securities, except when the effect would be antidilutive.

</TABLE>

2.    Inventories
      -----------

      The Company uses the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method to value
      inventory.

      Inventories are comprised of the following:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
                          April 22,       October 23,
                             2000            1999
                          ---------       -----------

      <S>                <C>              <C>
      Raw materials      $ 7,619,100      $4,539,800
      Work-in-process        677,400         762,400
      Finished goods       1,730,700         338,000
                         ---------------------------
                         $10,027,200      $5,640,200
                         ===========================
</TABLE>

      For the purposes of this LIFO calculation, the Company has estimated
      both the year-end inventory levels and the inflation/deflation that
      will occur during the fiscal year.

      The Company anticipates an increase in its LIFO valuation account as
      of October 21, 2000.  Accordingly, the Company has recorded an
      increase of $45,000, on a pro rata basis, in the LIFO reserve during
      the first six months of fiscal 2000.  During the first six months of
      1999, the Company recorded, on a pro rata basis, an increase of
      $45,000 in the LIFO reserve.  Inventories would have been $1,123,600
      higher at April 22, 2000 and $1,078,600 higher as of October 23, 1999,
      if the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method had been used.  Inventory
      cost determination on the FIFO method approximates replacement or
      current cost.

3.    Comprehensive Income
      --------------------

      Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of a business
      enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and
      circumstances from nonowner sources.  It includes all changes in
      equity during a period except those resulting from investments by
      owners and distributions to owners.  The components of total
      comprehensive income resulting from unrealized gains or losses on
      marketable securities, net of income taxes for the three and six
      months ended April 22, 2000 and April 24, 1999 are as follows:

                Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis
                ---------------------------------------------
              Of Financial Condition and Results Of Operations
              ------------------------------------------------

Results of Operations -
-----------------------

Net sales increased by $1,501,000, or 20%, during the second quarter of
fiscal 2000 and increased $4,845,300 or 37% for the first six months of
fiscal 2000 as compared to the same periods in fiscal 1999.  The increase in
net sales is primarily attributable to higher unit volume of the Company's
products.  The increased volume is primarily the result of more favorable
economic conditions benefiting the pleasure boat industry.

Gross profit increased $71,400 or 4% during the second quarter and increased
$1,265,000 or 44% for the first six months of fiscal 2000 as compared to the
same periods in fiscal 1999.  As a percentage of net sales, gross profit was
22% during the second quarter of fiscal year 2000, as compared to 25% for
the second quarter of fiscal 1999.  The decrease in the gross profit
percentage was mainly attributable to the product mix and also unfavorable
labor production variances.  For the six months ended April 22, 2000, gross
profit was 23% compared to 22% for the same period ended April 24, 1999.

Operating expenses increased $240,000 or 17% for the second quarter and
$646,500 or 25% in the first six months of fiscal 2000, as compared to the
same periods in fiscal 1999.  The increase is primarily attributable to the
hiring of additional personnel and related costs to support the increase in
net sales.  As a percentage of net sales, operating expenses were 18% in the
second quarter of both fiscal years 1999 and 2000.  For the first six months
of fiscal 2000 the percentage was 18% as compared to 19% in fiscal 1999.

Net interest expense increased $34,600 during the second quarter and
increased $61,900 for the first six months of fiscal 2000 as compared to the
same periods in fiscal 1999.  The increase in interest expense in the second
quarter and the six months ended April 22, 2000 is primarily due to a higher
outstanding balance on the line of credit with Citizens Bank of
Massachusetts.

Other expense during the quarter ended April 22, 2000 is comprised of the
realized loss from the sale of certain investments relating to the deferred
compensation agreement.  This loss is offset by a benefit in operating
expenses. The gains of $472,900 in the quarter ended April 24, 1999 are from
the liquidation of marketable securities.

For the second quarter ended April 22, 2000, the Company reported net income
of $125,800, compared to a net income of $580,600 for the same period in
fiscal 1999.  For the six months ended April 22, 2000, the Company reported
net income of $479,200 as compared to net income of $470,100 for the six-
months ended April 24, 1999.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------

During the first six months of fiscal 2000, net cash used by operations was
$3,618,400, compared to $291,500 for the first six months in fiscal 1999.
Net accounts receivable increased $1,016,500 during the first six months of
fiscal 2000, as compared to an increase of $499,600 in the same period in
fiscal 1999, primarily from the increase in net sales.  Net inventory
increased $4,387,000 during the first six months of fiscal 2000, as compared
to the same period in fiscal 1999.  The increase in net inventory is to
support the increase in net sales.

During the six months ended April 22, 2000, the Company purchased machinery
and equipment of $574,600.  The Company plans to spend approximately
$650,000 more on equipment during the remainder of the year.  In addition,
on April 25, 2000, the Company purchased a 110,000 square foot facility
located in Taunton, Massachusetts.  This facility will enable the Company to
consolidate its current operations into one location.  The MassDevelopment
Financing Agency approved the Company for a $5,000,000 tax-exempt industrial
revenue bond, which has been financed by GE Capital Public Finance.  The
term of the loan is fifteen years at a fixed rate of 6.46%.  The aggregate
cost of the facility and related improvements is estimated to be $5,000,000.
The Company does not anticipate any material disruption to its normal
operation during this transition period, however the Company will incur
costs related to the move during the third and fourth quarters.  It is
anticipated that by the fall of 2000 the Company will be fully operating
from its new location, although there can be no assurance that delays or
disruptions to operations will not occur.

The Company has a $4,000,000 Credit Agreement with Citizens Bank of
Massachusetts, collateralized by inventory, accounts receivable and general
intangibles. The amount of the facility available under the Credit Agreement
was increased on May 23, 2000 from $4,000,000 to $5,000,000.  At April 22,
2000, the Company had $2,650,000 in outstanding borrowings under the Credit
Agreement and approximately $744,200 committed to cover the Company's
reimbursement obligations under certain letters of credit and bankers'
acceptances.  The Credit Agreement expires on March 31, 2001.

The Company has two term loans with a bank aggregating $261,700, which will
be paid in monthly installments from 2001-2002.

Management believes cash flow from operations and borrowings available under
the Credit Agreement will provide for working capital needs, principal
payments on long-term debt, and capital and operating leases through fiscal
2000.

Domestic inflation is not expected to have a material impact on the
Company's operations.

The cost of engine blocks and other components is subject to foreign
currency fluctuations (primarily the Japanese yen).  The value of the U.S.
dollar relative to the yen had no material effect on the cost of the
Company's products during the first six months of fiscal 2000.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain forward-looking information
about the Company.  The Company is hereby setting forth statements
identifying important factors that may cause the Company's actual results to
differ materially from those set forth in any forward-looking statements
made by the Company.  Some of the most significant factors include: an
unanticipated down-turn in the recreational boating industry resulting in
lower demand for the Company's products; the unanticipated loss of, or
decline in sales to, a major customer; the unanticipated loss of a major
supplier; the inability of the Company to effect required modifications of
its products to meet governmental regulations with respect to emission
standards; foreign currency fluctuations resulting in cost increases to the
Company for its foreign supplied components; and any unforeseen
inefficiencies arising from the transition to the new facility.
Accordingly, there can be no assurances that any anticipated future results
will be achieved.


              Item 3 - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures
              -------------------------------------------------
                              About Market Risk
                              -----------------

Market risk represents the risk of changes in the value of short-term
investments and financial instruments caused by fluctuations in investment
prices and interest rates.

The Company addresses market risks in accordance with established policies.
The Company's risk-management activities involve risk and uncertainties and
accordingly, results could differ materially from those projected.

Investment Price Risk
---------------------

The value of the Company's investment portfolio at April 22, 2000 is stated
at market value.

Interest Rate Risk
------------------

Due to the fact that the long-term debt will mature within three years,
management has determined that the fair value would not be materially
different from the carrying value at April 22, 2000.

Part II.    Other Information

  Item 1    Legal Proceedings
  ------    -----------------

            The Company has initiated arbitration with the American
            Arbitration Association in New York against Daihatsu Motor
            Company, Ltd. ("Daihatsu") for breach of contract and other
            claims.  The Company is seeking damages based on Daihatsu's
            breach of a Component Sales Agreement which also granted the
            Company rights to certain engines including an engine Daihatsu
            began marketing in 1993 through a joint venture with Briggs &
            Stratton Corporation.  In a separate but related case pending in
            the Federal District Court for the District of Massachusetts,
            the Company is seeking damages from Briggs & Stratton
            Corporation for tortious interference with the Company's
            Agreement with Daihatsu and other related claims.
