Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles
(GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine month
periods ended September 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for future periods or the year ending December 31, 2006.

The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2005 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by United
States generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. For further information refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Companys annual report on Form 10-K for the year

Accounting for Stock Options

On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 123, Share Based Payment (SFAS 123R) using the modified-prospective method. Based on the terms of our stock based compensation plans, the Company did not have a cumulative effect related to its
plans. The Company also elected to continue to estimate the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes-Merton formula.

The
adoption of SFAS 123R resulted in compensation expense of approximately $272,000 and $258,000 that has been classified in general and administrative expenses related to employee stock options and restricted stock, respectively, for the three months
ended September 30, 2006. The adoption of SFAS 123R resulted in compensation expense of approximately $614,000 and $517,000 that has been classified in general and administrative expenses related to employee stock options and restricted stock,
respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The effects of the total compensation expense on net income was a reduction of $316,000 and $675,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively. The
effects of the total compensation expense was a reduction of basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.03 and $0.03, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and $0.06 and $0.06, respectively, for the nine months ended
September 30, 2006.

As of September 30, 2006, there was approximately $268,000 and $1,010,000 of total unrecognized compensation
cost related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under our plans expected for the remainder of 2006 and in future years through 2010, respectively. This expected cost does not include the impact of any future stock-based
compensation awards.

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of the grant using the

|Risk free interest rates |  | 4.67      | % |  | 4.01      | %
|Expected option lives    |  | 4.0 years |   |  | 4.0 years |  

Upon the adoption of SFAS 123R, expected volatility was based on historical volatilities. The
risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a remaining term equal to the expected option life assumed at the date of grant. The expected term was calculated based on historical experience and represents the time period
options actually remain outstanding. The Company estimated forfeitures based on historical pre-vesting forfeitures and will revise those estimates in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. For purposes of calculating
pro forma information for periods prior to fiscal 2006, the Company accounted for forfeitures as they occurred.

Dividends Declared

On September 2, 2003, the Board of Directors authorized a new dividend policy paying stockholders $0.40 per share annually,
distributable at $0.10 per share on a quarterly basis. During 2005, a dividend of approximately $1,016,000 was paid on March 15, 2005 to stockholders of record on February 28, 2005, a dividend of approximately $1,034,000 was paid on
June 15, 2005 to stockholders of record on May 31, 2005, a dividend of approximately $1,042,000 was paid on September 8, 2005 to stockholders of record on August 25, 2005 and a dividend of approximately $1,042,000 was paid on
December 2, 2005 to stockholders of record on November 18, 2005. During 2006, a dividend of approximately $1,050,000 was paid on March 2, 2006 to stockholders of record on February 20, 2006, a dividend of approximately $1,065,000
was paid on June 1, 2006 to stockholders of record on May 22, 2006 and a dividend of approximately $1,072,000 was paid on August 31, 2006 to stockholders of record on August 16, 2006.

The Company and its Board of Directors intend to continually review the dividend policy to ensure
compliance with capital requirements, regulatory limitations, the Companys financial position and other conditions which may affect the Companys desire or ability to pay dividends in the future.

Income Taxes

We account for income
taxes in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. SFAS No. 109 requires an asset and liability approach which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities for
the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be
realized. In making such determination, a review of all available positive and negative evidence must be considered, including scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and recent
financial performance. As of September 30, 2006, the Company reduced its valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets by approximately $2.3 million. All available positive and negative evidence was evaluated and the Company believes that it
is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets recorded at September 30, 2006 will be realized.

Recent Accounting
Pronouncements

In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation (FIN) No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income
Taxes  an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. FIN No. 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken
in a tax return, and provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. FIN No. 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The
Company is currently assessing the impact of FIN No. 48 on its financial statements.



|2. | Business Acquisitions and Investments
|-- | -------------------------------------

In March
2002, Ambassadors acquired a 49% ownership interest in Incentive Travel, LLC (ITI). ITI develops, markets and manages meetings and incentive programs for a select roster of corporate clients utilizing incentive travel and corporate
meeting management services. The terms of the purchase agreement call for contingent payments through 2005 based upon actual income before income taxes multiplied by Ambassadors 49% ownership interest calculated based on a predefined multiplier. As

(DHWI). DHWI owns a marina facility in Deer Harbor, Orcas Island, Washington. The Company also recorded its proportional share of the income (losses) from DHWI of approximately $31,000 for each of the three months ended
September 30, 2006 and 2005, and $(66,000) and $(42,000) for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, which are included in other income.

The Company accounts for its investments in ITI, BellPort Japan and DHWI on the equity method.

On
January 13, 2006, ACG acquired American West. Under the terms of the agreement, ACG acquired the membership interests of American West for one dollar, repaid debt of approximately $4.3 million and assumed approximately $41.5 million in
fixed-rate, 4.63% debt payable through 2028 and guaranteed by the U.S. Maritime Administration. In addition, the transaction consideration consisted of 250,000 shares of the Companys restricted common stock, which is subject to forfeiture to
the Company if certain future financial targets are not met during the four years following the close of the transaction.

The American West
purchase price was approximately $46.8 million. The contingent consideration of 250,000 shares of the Companys restricted stock has not been included in the preliminary purchase price and is not expected to be included in the original cost of
the acquisition due to managements inability to conclude beyond a reasonable doubt that the contingent consideration will be earned. The purchase price for the acquisition is as follows (in thousands):



|                           |  |   |       
|-------------------------- |  | - | ------
|Cash consideration         |  | $ | 4,350

|                           |  |   |       

The final purchase price is dependent on the actual final direct acquisition costs
and potential future contingent payments.

In accordance with SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, the
acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. The estimates of fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on managements estimates. The following table summarizes the components of the
purchase price (in thousands):

purchase agreement, ACG acquired three vessels, the American Queen®, Delta Queen® and Mississippi Queen®, and associated operating assets of Delta Queen for $2.75 million in cash, the assumption of approximately $9 million of passenger deposits and the
assumption of approximately $35.0 million of fixed-rate, 6.5% debt payable through 2020 and guaranteed by the U.S. Maritime Administration. In addition, the transaction included contingent consideration of 100,000 shares of the Companys common
stock, to be granted to Delta Queen Steamboat Company, Inc. if certain future financial targets are met in any of the three years following the close of the transaction.

The Delta Queen purchase price was approximately $48.0 million. The contingent consideration of 100,000 shares of the Companys common stock has not been included in the preliminary purchase price and is not
expected to be included in the original cost of the acquisition due to managements inability to conclude beyond a reasonable doubt that the contingent consideration will be earned. The purchase price for the acquisition is as

|                                         |  |   |       

The final purchase price is dependent on the actual final direct acquisition costs and potential
future contingent payments.

On April 25, 2006, ACG acquired the $9.0 million first preferred ship mortgage on a vessel, the
150-passenger Columbia Queen, from the U.S. Maritime Administration for $5.0 million. In August 2006, ACG acquired the $5.0 million second preferred ship mortgage on the Columbia Queen, from the mortgage holder for $3.5 million. As of
September 30, 2006, the mortgages held are classified as a note receivable in the accompanying balance sheet. On October 13, 2006, ACG purchased the Columbia Queen during a foreclosure auction for additional consideration of $1,000
and is anticipating on operating the vessel in the 2007 cruise season under Majestic America Line.

On June 12, 2006, ACG acquired the
48-passenger Executive Explorer for $2.5 million. The Company renamed the vessel Contessa and is anticipating on operating the vessel in the 2007 cruise season under Majestic America Line.

On July 21, 2006, AMG acquired Bellingham Marine, a marina design and construction company, through the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding stock
of Nishida Tekko America Corporation (NTAC) from Nishida Tekko Corporation (NTC). The Company paid cash consideration of $6.8 million to NTC and repaid $6.2 million of outstanding debt of NTAC. Prior to the acquisition by
AMG, NTAC owned 100% of Bellingham Marine. Concurrent with the acquisition, AMG acquired 49% of the outstanding stock of Bellingham Marine in satisfaction of certain debt obligations, thus leaving NTAC with a 51% equity interest in Bellingham
Marine. In addition, AMG and NTC entered into an option agreement pursuant to which NTC was granted a five year option to acquire 49% of the outstanding stock of NTAC at a purchase price not to exceed $3,430,000, plus seven percent annualized
interest. The effect of the option exercise would give NTC an approximate 25% interest in Bellingham Marine. The purchase price for the acquisition is as follows (in thousands):

The Company has accounted for American West from January 13, 2006, the date of acquisition.
Due to the insignificance of operations from January 1, 2006 through the date of acquisition, this period was excluded from the September 30, 2006 pro forma amounts listed above.



|3. | Reinsurance
|-- | -----------

In December 2003, the Company formed a
subsidiary, Cypress Re, and registered it as a Class 3 Reinsurer pursuant to Section 4 of the Bermuda Monetary Authority Act to carry on business in that capacity subject to the provisions of the Bermuda Monetary Authority Act.

The Company reinsures property and casualty risks written by licensed U.S. insurers through Cypress Re. The lines of business that are being reinsured
include commercial auto liability, commercial physical damage and workers compensation. These risks are associated with members of highly selective affinity groups or associations. Members whose risk is reinsured under a program must meet
certain loss control program qualifications. A member of a group must pass certain pre-qualification criteria that are part of the underwriting review by a third party.

The assumed reinsurance transactions are typically reinsured through a quota share agreement in which Cypress Re agrees to accept a certain fixed percentage of premiums written from the ceding company and in general
assumes the same percentage of purchased reinsurance, direct acquisition costs and ultimate incurred claims.

Cypress Re retains a quota share percentage of the first layer of risk on a per policy basis, which
ranges from $250,000 to $500,000 and a third party reinsurer (through excess of loss reinsurance) retains the next layer up to the policy limits of $1.0 million. Cypress Re retains losses up to the aggregate reinsurance limit, which varies with each
quota share reinsurance agreement and the third party reinsurer then pays losses in excess of Cypress Res aggregate reinsurance limit up to $5.0 million. Cypress Re is responsible for any additional losses in excess of the aggregate
reinsurance limit.

In 2004, the Company transferred its investment interest in two insurance programs to Cypress Re. On March 29,
2004, Cypress Re entered into a reinsurance agreement which incorporated the terms and conditions of the above interest of these programs. The quota share reinsurance agreement covered a retroactive period from July 1, 2002 through
March 29, 2004, as well as a prospective period from March 29, 2004 to June 30, 2004. The reinsurance agreement meets the requirements of SFAS No. 113 Accounting and Reporting for Reinsurance of Short-Duration and
Long-Duration Contracts and has both prospective and retroactive elements.

During 2004, Cypress Re entered into additional quota
share reinsurance agreements. These reinsurance agreements represent participation in selective property and casualty programs. The reinsurance agreements meet the requirements of SFAS No. 113. One of the quota share reinsurance agreements
covers a retroactive period from January 1, 2003 through May 31, 2004 and a prospective period from June 1, 2004 through December 31, 2004. The other agreements contain only prospective components.

Accounting for prospective reinsurance transactions results in premiums and related acquisition costs being recognized over the remaining period of the
insurance contracts reinsured. As a result, unearned premium reserves, deferred policy acquisition costs and ceded prepaid reinsurance premiums of $3.0 million, $0.8 million and $0.6 million, respectively, were recorded on the balance sheet as of
September 30, 2006.

Accounting for retroactive reinsurance transactions results in the reinsurer reimbursing the ceding company for
liabilities incurred as a result of past insurable events covered by the underlying policies reinsured. Loss and loss adjustment expenses are initially recorded at the estimated ultimate payout amount and any gain from any such transaction is
deferred and amortized into income. Loss and loss adjustment expense reserves are adjusted for changes in the estimated ultimate payout and the original deferred gain is recalculated and reamortized to the balance that would have existed had the
changes in estimated ultimate payout been available at the inception of the transaction, resulting in a corresponding charge or credit to income in the period that the changes in estimated ultimate payout are made. As of September 30, 2006, the
deferred gain on retroactive reinsurance was $44,000 and Cypress Re recognized in income $0.1 million and $0.4 million of the previously deferred gain for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

As of September 30, 2006, premiums receivable, reinsurance recoverable and loss and loss adjustment expense reserves of $1.3 million, $0.1 million
and $0.8 million, respectively, related to retroactive reinsurance were recorded on the Companys balance sheet. The September 30, 2006 loss and loss adjustment expense reserves balance includes $0.4 million for incurred but not reported
claims.

Cypress Re retrocedes risk to the ceding company under specific excess and aggregate loss treaties. Cypress Re remains obligated
for amounts ceded in the event that the reinsurer does not meet its obligations.

Premiums receivable at September 30, 2006 is
comprised of funds held in trust by the ceding company of approximately $13.7 million and deferred and not yet due premiums from the ceding company of approximately $1.6 million. The funds held in trust primarily consist of high grade corporate
bonds, government bonds and money market funds.

As of September 30, 2006, reinsurance recoverable and prepaid reinsurance premiums of $1.5
million and $0.6 million, respectively, relate to a single reinsurer. Cypress Res exposure to credit loss in the event of non-payment or nonperformance is limited to these amounts.

The effect of reinsurance on premiums written and earned for the year ended September 30, 2006 was as follows (in thousands):

As of September 30, 2006, the Company has issued approximately $10,241,000 in letters of
credit related to property and casualty insurance programs which expire at various dates through 2007.



|4. | Inventory

The Company maintains an inventory of
fuel, supplies, souvenirs, and food and beverage products. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, using standard costs, which approximates the first-in, first-out method. The components of inventory as of September 30, 2006 are

|5. | Long-term obligations
|-- | ---------------------

In conjunction with
ACGs acquisition of American West, the Company assumed approximately $41.5 million in fixed-rate, 4.63% debt payable through 2028 and guaranteed by the U.S. Government through the U.S. Maritime Administration (MARAD) under Title

|--- | -------------

On March 24, 2006, the
Empress of the North ran aground in Washougal, Washington. No passengers or crew were injured during the grounding. The vessel was in dry dock for damage inspection and repairs for approximately four weeks. The vessel was released and began
operations on April 16, 2006. As of September 30, 2006, the Company recorded in cruise operating expenses approximately $2.7 million in costs associated with vessel repairs, passenger relocation and crew expenses incurred as a result of
the grounding. These expenses were offset by insurance recoveries of $1.6 million received in the second quarter of 2006. The Company estimates that the overall negative impact of the cancelled revenue related to this incident to be approximately
$1.7 million.

On October 20, 2006,
approximately 20 passengers of the Mississippi Queen became ill with flu like symptoms and were taken to a local hospital. The cruise stopped sailing two days earlier than originally scheduled in order to inspect and clean the vessel. The
vessel was released and began operations for the next scheduled cruise on October 25, 2006 and again stopped operation on October 27, 2006 due to the same flu like symptoms on additional passengers. The Company anticipates canceling two
additional weeks of cruise sailings in order to further inspect and clean the vessel. The Company is in the process of estimating overall negative impact of the cancelled revenue related to this incident.

|Item 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
|------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The following discussion of the Companys financial condition and the results of operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this
Quarterly Report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the Companys actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied
by such forward-looking statements. These risks, uncertainties and other factors include, among others, those identified under Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.

The Company is a cruise, marine, travel and events and reinsurance company.
Ambassadors Cruise Group, LLC (ACG), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, operates American West Steamboat Company (American West), which offers cruises through Alaskas Inside Passage and on the Columbia and Snake
rivers, and DQSC Operations, LLC (Delta Queen), which offers cruises on many of Americas best known rivers, including the Mississippi, Ohio, Tennessee, Cumberland and Arkansas rivers with stops at many of Americas most
historic cities, battle grounds and estates. American West and Delta Queen have been combined under one brand, Majestic America Line. Ambassadors Marine Group, LLC (AMG), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, operates BellPort Group,
Inc. (BellPort), which provides marina management, development, consulting services and shipyard operations throughout the United States and Mexico, and Bellingham Marine Industries, Inc. (Bellingham Marine), a marina design
and construction company, which we acquired on July 21, 2006. Ambassadors, LLC (Ambassadors), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, provides travel and event services for corporations, associations and tradeshows. Cypress
Reinsurance, Ltd (Cypress Re), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, reinsures property and casualty risks written by licensed U.S. insurers.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and costs
and expenses during the period. We evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those which impact our most critical accounting policies, on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other
factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, within the framework of current accounting literature.

Our businesses are seasonal.
Historically, we have recognized the majority of our operating results in the first and second quarters of each fiscal year. As a result of the acquisitions within ACG, we anticipate that beginning in 2006 the majority of our operating results will
be recognized in the second and third quarters of each fiscal year, which coincides with our cruising season. Our annual results would be adversely affected if our revenue were to be substantially below seasonal norms during the second and third
quarters of the year.

The following is a list of the accounting policies that we believe require the most significant judgments and estimates, and that
could potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions or conditions.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service fee is fixed or determinable, collectibility is reasonably assured and delivery has
occurred.

Passenger Ticket Revenue and Cruise Onboard and Other Revenues

Passenger ticket revenue is recorded net of applicable discounts. Passenger ticket revenue and related costs of revenue are recognized when the cruise is completed. The Company generally receives from its customers a
partially refundable deposit within one week of booking a tour, with the balance typically remitted 60 days prior to the departure date. When customers cancel their trip, the nonrefundable portion of their deposit is recognized as revenue

on the date of cancellation. Passenger revenue representing travel insurance purchased at the time of reservation is recognized upon the completion of the
cruise or passenger cancellation, whichever is earlier. Passenger fares and on board revenue are comprised of beverage and souvenir sales and optional shore excursions and are deferred and recognized as revenue when the cruise is completed.

Travel, Incentive and Event Related

The Company bills
travel participants, mainly consisting of large corporations, in advance, of which the cash received is recorded as a participant deposit. The Company pays for certain direct program costs such as airfare, hotel and other program costs in advance of
travel, which are recorded as prepaid program costs. The Company recognizes travel revenue and related costs when travel convenes and classifies such revenue as travel and incentive related. This revenue is reported on a net basis, reflecting the
net effect of gross billings to the client less any direct program costs.

Revenue from hotel reservation, registration and related travel services are
recognized when the convention operates. Revenue from the sale of merchandise is recognized when the merchandise is shipped, the service has been provided or when the redemption periods have expired. Revenue from pre-paid, certificate-based
merchandise incentive programs is deferred until the Companys obligations are fulfilled or upon managements estimates (based upon historical trends) that it is remote that the certificate will be redeemed. These revenues are reported on
a net basis, reflecting the net effect of gross billings to the client less any direct program or merchandise costs.

Revenue from software and technology
related events is derived from a combination of license and maintenance fees and services provided with enterprise software tools. The services provided include hosting of data, development and workflow configuration. Revenue from contracts with
multiple elements is recognized using the residual method in accordance with Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition as amended by SOP 98-9, Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue
Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions. Revenue from development contracts is recognized in accordance with SOP 81-1, Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts. Such
development contracts pertain to a combination of customization and enhancement programs of the Companys event software performed at the request of clients. These contracts cover program periods of three to nine months and do not involve
significant revisions to estimates due to their short-term nature. At September 30, 2006, the Company had one short-term development contract that was in the completion phase of the agreement. Revenue from contracts relating to only maintenance
or hosting of data is recognized on the straight-line basis over the period that the services are provided.

Net Insurance Premiums Earned

Insurance premiums are recognized as revenue over the period of the insurance contracts in proportion to the amount of the insurance coverage provided.
The insurance contracts are typically twelve months in duration and are considered short-duration contracts. Unearned premiums represent the unearned portion of the insurance contracts as of the balance sheet date.

Ceded reinsurance premiums relate to reinsurance purchased (excess of loss and aggregate stop loss) to mitigate potential losses from severe adverse loss development,
both on a per accident claim basis and in the aggregate. These ceded reinsurance transactions are recognized as a reduction of premium revenue in the same manner in which the insurance contract is recognized as premium revenue.

Marine Revenue

The Company recognizes revenue for marine and related
services in accordance with the respective contracts. Revenues from fixed-price marine construction contracts are recognized on the percentage-of-completion method, measured by the percentage of cost incurred to date to managements estimate of
total cost for each contract. This method is used because management considers total cost to be the best available measure of progress on these contracts. Revenues from cost-plus contracts are recognized on the basis of costs incurred, plus the fee
earned. An amount equal to contract costs attributable to claims is included in revenues when realization is probable and the amount can be reliably estimated.

##### Table of Contents

Contract costs include all direct materials, labor and subcontractors, and those indirect costs directly related to
contract performance, such as payroll taxes and employee benefits. Other indirect costs, such as equipment rental, repairs and depreciation, are treated as cost of revenues earned, but are not allocated to specific jobs. General and administrative
costs are charged to expense as incurred. A provision for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts is made in the period in which such losses are determined. Changes in job performance, job conditions, estimated profitability, and final contract
settlements may result in revisions to costs and income, and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined.

The Company recognizes
shipyard related revenue upon the completion and delivery of services performed.

The asset, Costs in excess of billings on construction
contracts, represents revenues recognized in excess of amounts billed. The liability, Billings in excess of costs on construction contracts, represents billings in excess of revenues recognized.

License Fees

Revenue from license fees is recognized based on a
contracted percentage of total program receipts recorded from the licensing source.

Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs

Deferred policy acquisition costs represent those costs, commissions and other costs of acquiring insurance, that vary with and are primarily related to the production of
new and renewal insurance. These costs are deferred and amortized over the terms of the policies or reinsurance treaties to which they relate. Deferred policy acquisition costs represent those costs directly related to the unearned premiums as of
the balance sheet date. The Company considers anticipated investment income in determining the recoverability of these costs. At September 30, 2006, management believes its deferred policy acquisition costs are recoverable.

Reserve for Loss and Loss Adjustment Reserves

The liability for
losses and loss-adjustment expenses includes an amount determined from loss reports and individual cases and an amount for losses incurred but not reported. Such liabilities are based on estimates and, while we believe that the amount is adequate,
the ultimate liability may be in excess of or less than the amounts provided. Anticipated deductible recoveries from insureds are recorded as reinsurance recoverables at the time the liability for unpaid claims is established. Other recoveries on
unsettled claims, such as salvage and subrogation, are estimated by management and adjusted upon collection.

Reinsurance

In the normal course of business, Cypress Re seeks to reduce the loss that may arise from catastrophes or other events that cause unfavorable underwriting results by
reinsuring certain levels of risk in various areas of exposure with other insurance enterprises or reinsurers. Amounts recoverable from reinsurers are estimated in a manner consistent with the reinsured policy.

With respect to retroactive reinsurance contracts, the amount by which the liabilities associated with the reinsured policies exceed the amounts paid is amortized to
income over the estimated remaining settlement period. The effects of subsequent changes in estimated or actual cash flows are accounted for by adjusting the previously deferred amount to the balance that would have existed had the revised estimate
been available at the inception of the reinsurance transaction, with a corresponding charge or credit to income.

##### Table of Contents

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Cost of maintenance and repairs which do not improve or extend the lives of the respective assets are expensed as incurred. Major additions and betterments are
capitalized. The vessels are capitalized and depreciated using the straight-line method over the expected useful life ranging up to 30 years, net of a residual value which generally approximate 15%. Vessel replacement parts are depreciated upon
being placed in service. Office and shop equipment is capitalized and depreciated using the straight-line method over the expected useful life of the equipment, ranging up to 10 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the
straight-line method over the lesser of the expected useful life of the improvement or the term of the related lease.

The Company performs reviews for the
impairment of property and equipment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. When property and equipment are sold or retired, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are
removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is recognized in the statement of operations.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are tested for impairment at least annually or sooner whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that they may be impaired. Management evaluates recoverability using both subjective and objective factors. Subjective factors include the evaluation of industry and product trends and the Companys strategic focus. Objective factors include
managements best estimates of projected future earnings and cash flows. The Company uses a discounted cash flow model to estimate the fair market value of each of its reporting units and indefinite lived intangibles when performing its
impairment tests. Assumptions used include growth rates for revenues and expenses, investment yields on deposits, any future capital expenditure requirements and appropriate discount rates. The Company established reporting units based on its
current reporting structure. For purposes of testing goodwill for impairment, goodwill has been allocated to these reporting units to the extent it related to each reporting unit. Intangible assets with definite lives are amortized over their
estimated useful lives and reviewed for impairment at least annually or sooner whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that they may be impaired. The majority of the Companys intangible assets were assigned lives based on contract
values associated with each intangible asset. The Company amortizes its acquired intangible assets with definite lives over periods ranging from 5 to 20 years.

Foreign Currency Transactions

Bellingham Marine consists of five foreign subsidiaries in Australia, New Zealand, Europe and Southeast Asia.
The financial statements of these foreign entities were denominated in a foreign currency and then translated to U.S. dollars. Balance sheet accounts have been translated using the current rate of exchange at the balance sheet date. Results of
operations have been translated using the average rates prevailing throughout the year. Translation gains or losses resulting from the changes in the exchange rates from year-to-year are accumulated in a separate component of stockholders
equity. Gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are identified separately in the statement of income.

Stock Based Compensation

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 123 (revised 2004), Share Based Payment (SFAS 123R). SFAS 123R supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and amends SFAS No. 95, Statement
of Cash Flows. Generally, the fair value approach in SFAS 123R is similar to the fair value approach described in SFAS No. 123. In 2005, we used the Black-Scholes-Merton formula to estimate the fair value of stock options granted to
employees. We adopted SFAS 123R, using the modified-prospective method, beginning January 1, 2006. Based on the terms of our plans, we did not have a cumulative effect related to our plans. We also elected to continue to estimate the fair value
of stock options using the Black-Scholes-Merton formula.

Income Taxes

We
account for income taxes in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. SFAS No. 109 requires an asset and liability approach which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and deferred
tax liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the
amount expected to be realized. In making such determination, a review of all available positive and negative evidence must be considered, including scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning
strategies, and recent financial performance. As of September 30, 2006, the Company reduced its valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets. All available positive and negative evidence was evaluated and the Company believes that it is more
likely than not that the net deferred tax assets recorded at September 30, 2006 will be realized.

COMPARISON OF RESULTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 2006 TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2005

Revenue

Total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2006 was $57.6 million, compared to $6.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. For the quarter ended September 30, 2006, the
increase in revenue resulted from the addition of revenue from our cruise segment, which began operations on January 13, 2006, and an increase in revenue from our marine segment. For the quarter ended September 30, 2006, our cruise segment
revenue was $35.0 million. Our marine revenue increased $16.5 million compared to the comparable period of 2005 as a result of the addition of our Bellingham Marine operations which commenced on July 21, 2006 and our shipyard operations which
began on April 1, 2006. In addition, travel, incentive and event related revenue increased $0.5 million due to an increase in the total number of events operated during the period. These increases were partially offset by lower net insurance
premiums earned of $0.7 million from our insurance segment due to a decrease in premiums earned on existing insurance programs and lower license fees earned from the licensing source within the travel and events segment of $0.1 million due to
overall lower business volume of the source.

Cruise Operating Expenses

Cruise operating expenses were $16.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006, representing direct expenses incurred with owning and operating the American West and Delta Queen cruise lines acquired
in January 2006 and April 2006, respectively. There was no comparable cruise activity for the 2005 period. We anticipate cruise related expenses to increase in future periods in relation to cruise revenue generated.

Cost of Marine Revenue

Cost of marine revenue was $13.0 million for
the three months ended September 30, 2006, representing direct expenses incurred with our Bellingham Marine operations which commenced on July 21, 2006 and our shipyard operations which began on April 1, 2006. There was no comparable
marine activity for the 2005 period. We anticipate marine related expenses to increase in future periods in relation to marine revenue generated.

Selling and Tour Promotion Expenses

Selling and tour promotion expenses were $4.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006,
compared to $0.7 million for the comparable quarter of 2005. The increase is due to the additional selling and marketing expenses incurred by the cruise segment which began operations in January 2006.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative
expenses were $11.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, compared to $3.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2005. The increase is due to the general and administrative expenses incurred by the cruise and marine
segments based on the inclusion of additional expenses resulting from

the businesses acquired within these two segments in 2006. As of January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123R, Share-Based
Payment and recorded approximately $272,000 and $258,000 in general and administrative expenses related to employee stock options and restricted stock, respectively.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expenses were $1.2 million for the quarter ended
September 30, 2006, compared to $81,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2005. The increase is related to the additional depreciation expensed during the quarter ended September 30, 2006 due to the property and equipment,
predominantly consisting of vessels, acquired as a result of the acquisitions completed during 2006.

Loss and Loss Adjustment Expenses

Loss and loss adjustment expenses were $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006, compared to $1.7 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2005. Loss and loss adjustment expenses increased to 62.8% of net insurance premiums earned in 2006 from 55.3% in 2005. The increase as a percentage of net insurance premiums earned is due to modestly higher loss development
incurred during the third quarter of 2006.

Insurance Acquisition Costs and Other Operating Expenses

Insurance acquisition costs and other operating expenses were $0.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006, compared to $1.2 million for the three
months ended September 30, 2005. The decrease is related to the decrease in net insurance premiums earned for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 compared to the comparable quarter of 2005.

Operating Income (Loss)

We recorded operating income of $8.5 million
for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, compared to an operating loss of $0.5 million in the comparable quarter of 2005. The change is the result of the changes described above.

Other Income (Expense)

Other income (expense) for the three months ended September 30, 2006 was $0.2 million,
compared to $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The decrease was a result of approximately $1.0 million of interest expense related to long-term debt assumed in our cruise and marine acquisitions consummated during 2006
and decreases in our net earnings on minority investments in 2006 of $0.4 million. Other income was favorably impacted by realized gains of $0.3 million which resulted from sales of available-for-sale securities and improved yields on our investment
portfolio resulting from higher interest rates in 2006 compared to the comparable quarter of 2005.

Income Taxes

We recorded income tax expense of $1.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, compared to income tax expense of $0.3 million for the quarter ended
September 30, 2005. The effective tax rate for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 was 12.7%, compared to a rate of 37.8% for the quarter ended September 30, 2005. The decrease in the rate is due to the reversal of the valuation
allowance on our deferred tax assets of approximately $2.3 million. We evaluated all available positive and negative evidence and concluded that it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets recorded at September 30, 2006 will be
realized.

Net Income

Net income for the quarter ended
September 30, 2006 was $7.6 million, compared to $0.4 million for the comparable quarter of 2005. The change is the result of the changes described above.

COMPARISON OF RESULTS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2006 TO THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2005

Revenue

Total revenue for the nine months ended
September 30, 2006 was $95.6 million, compared to $22.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, the increase in revenue resulted from the addition of revenue from our cruise
segment, which began operations on January 13, 2006, and an increase in revenue from our marine segment. For the quarter ended September 30, 2006, our cruise segment revenue was $58.2 million. In addition, our marine revenue increased
$18.6 million compared to the comparable period of 2005 as a result of the addition of our Bellingham Marine operations which commenced on July 21, 2006 and our shipyard operations which began on April 1, 2006. These increases were
partially offset by lower travel, incentive and event related revenue of $1.9 million due to a decrease in the total number and overall size of events operated during the period, lower net insurance premiums earned of $1.4 million from our insurance
segment due to a decrease in premiums earned on existing insurance programs and lower license fees earned from the licensing source within the travel and events segment of $0.1 million due to overall lower business volume of the source.

Cruise Operating Expenses

Cruise operating expenses were $31.1
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, representing direct expenses incurred with owning and operating the American West and Delta Queen cruise vessels acquired in January 2006 and April 2006, respectively. There was no cruise
activity for the comparable nine month period of 2005.

Cost of Marine Revenue

Cost of marine revenue was $14.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, representing direct expenses incurred with our Bellingham Marine operations which commenced on July 21, 2006 and our
shipyard operations which began on April 1, 2006. There was no comparable marine activity for the comparable nine month period of 2005.

Selling
and Tour Promotion Expenses

Selling and tour promotion expenses were $9.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, compared to $2.3
million for the comparable nine month period of 2005. The increase is due to the additional selling and marketing expenses incurred by the cruise segment which began operations in January 2006.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative
expenses were $24.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, compared to $9.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The increase is due to the general and administrative expenses incurred by the cruise and
marine segments based on the inclusion of additional expenses resulting from the businesses acquired within these two segments in 2006. As of January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123R, Share-Based Payment and recorded
approximately $614,000 and $517,000 in general and administrative expenses related to employee stock options and restricted stock, respectively.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expenses were $2.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006,
compared to $0.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The increase is related to the additional depreciation expensed during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 due to the property and equipment, predominantly
consisting of vessels, acquired as a result of the acquisitions completed during 2006.

Loss and Loss Adjustment Expenses

Loss and loss adjustment expenses were $4.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, compared to $4.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. Loss and loss adjustment expenses
increased to 58.9% of net insurance premiums earned in 2006 from 52.1% in 2005. The increase as a percentage of net insurance premiums earned is due to modestly higher loss development incurred during the second half of 2005 through the nine months
ended September 30, 2006.

Insurance Acquisition Costs and Other Operating Expenses

Insurance acquisition costs and other operating expenses were $2.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, compared to $3.5 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2005. The decrease is related to the decrease in net insurance premiums earned for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to comparable nine month period of 2005.

Operating Income

We recorded a operating income of $6.8 million for
the nine months ended September 30, 2006, compared to operating income of $2.2 million in the comparable nine month period of 2005. The change is the result of the changes described above.

Other Income (Expense)

Other income (expense) for the nine months
ended September 30, 2006 was $1.8 million, compared to $3.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The decrease was a result of approximately $2.1 million of interest expense related to long-term debt assumed in our cruise
and marine acquisitions consummated during 2006 and decreases in our net earnings on minority investments in 2006 of $1.0 million. Other income was favorably impacted by realized gains of $1.1 million which resulted from sales of available-for-sale
securities and improved yields on our investment portfolio of $0.6 million resulting from higher interest rates in 2006 compared to the comparable nine month period of 2005.

Income Taxes

We recorded a income tax expense of $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006,
compared to tax expense of $2.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was 12.1%, compared to a tax rate of 39.3% for the nine months ended
September 30, 2005. The decrease in the effective rate is due to the reversal of the valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets of approximately $2.3 million. We evaluated all available positive and negative evidence and concluded that it
is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets recorded at September 30, 2006 will be realized.

Net Income

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $7.5 million, compared to $3.3 million for the comparable nine month period of 2005. The change is the
result of the changes described above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and available-for-sale securities totaled $73.9 million at September 30, 2006, compared to $95.1 million at December 31, 2005. The decrease was primarily due to
cash paid for acquisitions, payments on long-term debt, purchases of equipment and dividends paid to shareholders during the nine month period ending September 30, 2006. The uses of cash were partially offset by positive changes in net cash
related to timing differences in the collection of current assets and the payment of current liabilities, specifically an increase in participant and passenger deposits.

##### Table of Contents

Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was approximately $12.0
million, compared to $7.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The change in net cash primarily relates to timing differences in the collection of current assets and the payment of current liabilities, specifically an increase
in net income and participant and passenger deposits.

Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was
approximately $11.1 million, compared to $24.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The change is due to the timing differences in reinvesting matured securities and cash paid for acquisitions.

We do not have any material capital expenditure commitments for 2006.

The
terms of our investment in Incentive Travel, Inc. (ITI) included contingent payments due in March 2005 based upon fiscal year 2004 income. In 2005, we paid approximately $497,000 based upon 2004 and 2005 income. We have also accrued a
payment due in 2006 of approximately $443,000 based upon the Companys remaining obligation related to 2005 income.

On February 1, 2005, the
Company acquired 100% of the outstanding stock of BellPort. BellPort, located in Newport Beach, California, is a marina company operating facilities in both the United States and Mexico. The purchase was completed in February 2005 for consideration
of $1,280,000 in cash and the issuance of 184,717 shares of the Companys common stock, of which 130,389 shares were issued to related parties. In addition to the cash and stock consideration, the Company assumed a credit facility of
approximately $1,568,000 which the Company paid off in full on February 11, 2005. In connection with the acquisition, the Company was granted a twelve month option to purchase a 34% interest in BellPort Japan Company, Ltd. (BellPort
Japan), a marina operator, owner and developer of waterfront real estate, including both residential communities and marina facilities, located in Japan. In February 2006, BellPort acquired a 34% interest in BellPort Japan through the
acquisition of BellJa Holding Company, Inc., a California corporation, for $250,000 and extended its license agreement with BellPort Japan through 2010.

On January 13, 2006, ACG acquired American West. Under the terms of the agreement, ACG acquired the membership interests of American West for one dollar, repaid debt of approximately $4.3 million and assumed approximately $41.5 million
in fixed-rate, 4.63% debt payable through 2028 and guaranteed by the U.S. Maritime Administration. In addition, the transaction consideration consisted of 250,000 shares of the Companys restricted common stock, which is subject to forfeiture
to the Company if certain future financial targets are not met during the four years following the close of the transaction.

On April 25, 2006, ACG
acquired the cruise-related assets of Delta Queen for $2.75 million in cash, the assumption of approximately $9 million of passenger deposits and the assumption of approximately $35.0 million of fixed-rate, 6.50% debt payable through 2020 and
guaranteed by the U.S. Maritime Administration. In addition, the transaction included contingent consideration of 100,000 shares of the Companys common stock to be granted to Delta Queen Steamboat Company, Inc. if certain future financial
targets are met in any of the three years following the close of the transaction.

On February 13, 2006, BellPort purchased certain assets related to
the Newport Harbor Shipyard for $545,000. Concurrent with the asset purchase, BellPort entered into a long term agreement to lease and operate the shipyard facility beginning April 1, 2006 and ending March 31, 2011.

On April 25, 2006, ACG acquired the $9.0 million first preferred ship mortgage on a vessel, the 150-passenger Columbia Queen, from the U.S. Maritime
Administration for $5.0 million. In August 2006, ACG acquired the $5.0 million second preferred ship mortgage on the Columbia Queen, from the mortgage holder for $3.5 million. As of September 30, 2006, the mortgage held is classified as
a note receivable as of September 30, 2006 in the accompanying balance sheet. On October 13, 2006, ACG purchased the Columbia Queen during a foreclosure auction for additional consideration of $1,000 and anticipates on operating the
vessel in the 2007 cruise season under the Majestic America Line.

On June 12, 2006, ACG acquired the 48-passenger Executive Explorer for $2.5 million from the U.S. Federal
Marshal. The Company renamed the vessel Contessa and is anticipating on operating the vessel in the 2007 cruise season under Majestic America Line.

On July 21, 2006, the Company, through AMG, acquired Bellingham Marine, a marina design and construction company. Pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated July 21, 2006, the Company acquired all the outstanding securities of
Nishida Tekko America Corporation (NTAC), the parent corporation of Bellingham Marine, from Nishida Tekko Corporation (NTC), a Japanese corporation, for cash consideration of $6.8 million and the repayment of $6.2 million of
outstanding debt of NTAC. Concurrent with the acquisition, AMG acquired 49% of the outstanding stock of Bellingham Marine in satisfaction of certain debt obligations, thus leaving NTAC with a 51% equity interest in Bellingham Marine. In addition,
AMG and NTC entered into an option agreement pursuant to which NTC was granted a five year option to acquire 49% of the outstanding stock of NTAC at a purchase price not to exceed $3,430,000, plus seven percent annualized interest. NTAC and AMG have
a 51% and 49% ownership interest in Bellingham Marine, respectively. The effect of the option exercise would give NTC an approximate 25% interest in Bellingham Marine.

Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was approximately $4.9 million, compared to $3.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. Current period
activity consisted of three $0.10 per share cash dividends paid to common stockholders and payments made on debt assumed in conjunction with the current year acquisitions. These payments were partially offset by the proceeds received from the
exercise of employee stock options during the period. Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 consisted of three $0.10 per share cash dividends paid to common stockholders and the repayment of all debt
assumed in conjunction with the BellPort acquisition. These payments were partially offset by the proceeds received from the exercise of employee stock options.

On September 2, 2003, the Board of Directors authorized a new dividend policy paying stockholders $0.40 per share annually, distributable at $0.10 per share on a quarterly basis. During 2005, a dividend of approximately $1,016,000 was
paid on March 15, 2005 to stockholders of record on February 28, 2005, a dividend of approximately $1,034,000 was paid on June 15, 2005 to stockholders of record on May 31, 2005, a dividend of approximately $1,042,000 was paid on
September 8, 2005 to stockholders of record on August 25, 2005 and a dividend of approximately $1,042,000 was paid on December 2, 2005 to stockholders of record on November 18, 2005. During 2006, a dividend of approximately
$1,050,000 was paid on March 2, 2006 to stockholders of record on February 20, 2006, a dividend of approximately $1,065,000 was paid on June 1, 2006 to stockholders of record on May 22, 2006 and a dividend of approximately
$1,072,000 was paid on August 31, 2006 to stockholders of record on August 16, 2006.

We and our Board of Directors intend to continually review
the dividend policy to ensure compliance with capital requirements, regulatory limitations, our financial position and other conditions which may affect our desire or ability to pay dividends in the future.

In the ordinary course of business we may from time to time be required to enter into letters of credit related for our insurance programs and travel related programs
with airlines, travel providers and travel reporting agencies. As of September 30, 2006, we have issued approximately $10,241,000 in letters of credit related to property and casualty insurance programs which expire at various dates through
2007. As of September 30, 2006, we have issued approximately $145,000 in letters of credit related to travel and event business operations which expire at various dates through 2007. As of September 30, 2006, we have issued approximately
$889,000 in letters of credit related to cruise business operations which expire in 2007. We have a $20 million line of credit to support the outstanding letters of credit. Pursuant to the line of credit, we are subject to certain covenants, which
include, among other things, a requirement for debt to worth ratio and unencumbered liquid assets. As of September 30, 2006, we were in compliance with these covenants.

Under Bermuda regulations, Cypress Re is required to maintain a surplus of 20% of gross written premiums or 10% of loss and loss adjustment expense reserves, whichever is greater. As of September 30, 2006,
Cypress Re has $10.1 million of contributed capital from us which is in excess of the required statutory capital and surplus of $1.2 million.

In November 1998, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of our common stock in the open market or through
private transactions up to $20.0 million. In August 2006, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized an additional $10.0 million for the repurchase of the Companys common stock in the open market or through private transactions,
providing for an aggregate of $30.0 million. In 2005 and the nine months ended September 30. 2006 we made no share repurchases. We do not believe that any future repurchases will have a significant impact on our liquidity.

We believe that cash, cash equivalents, available-for-sale securities and cash flows from operations will be sufficient to meet our anticipated operating cash needs for
at least the next twelve months. We continue to pursue further acquisitions of businesses that are complementary to our operations, although no assurance can be given that definitive agreements for any acquisition will be entered into or, if they
are entered into, that any acquisition will be consummated on terms favorable to us. We could use cash and financing sources discussed herein, or financing sources that subsequently become available, to fund additional acquisitions or investments.
In addition, we may consider issuing additional debt or equity securities in the future to fund potential acquisitions or investments, to refinance existing debt, or for general corporate purposes. If a material acquisition or investment is
completed, our operating results and financial condition could change materially in future periods. However, no assurance can be given that additional funds will be available on satisfactory terms, or at all, to fund such activities.

Trends and Uncertainties

The results of operations and financial position of our business may be affected by a number of trends or uncertainties that have, or we reasonably expect could have, a material impact on income from continuing
operations, cash flows and financial position. Such trends and uncertainties include the repercussions of the war in Iraq or terrorist acts, our acquisition of or investment in complementary businesses and significant changes in estimates for
potential claims or other general estimates related to our reinsurance business. We will also, from time to time, consider the acquisition of or investment in businesses, services and technologies that might affect our liquidity requirements.

A more

or in the Companys press releases. We disclaim any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.



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

The
Company is exposed to changes in financial market conditions in the normal course of business due to its use of certain financial instruments. Market risk generally represents the risk that losses may occur in the values of financial instruments as
a result of movements in interest rates and equity prices.

There have been no material changes in the reported market risks or the overall credit risk of
the Companys portfolio since December 31, 2005. See further discussion of these market risks and related financial instruments in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.



|Item 4. | Controls and Procedures.
|------- | ------------------------

The Company maintains disclosure controls
and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Companys Securities Exchange Act of 1934 reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities
and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Companys management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving
the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-

##### Table of Contents

benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. The Companys disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide a reasonable level of
assurance of reaching the Companys desired disclosure control objectives. Also, the Company has investments in certain unconsolidated entities. As the Company does not control or manage these entities, the Companys disclosure controls
and procedures with respect to such entities are necessarily substantially more limited than those the Company maintains with respect to the Companys consolidated subsidiaries.

As required by Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 13a-15(b), the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Companys Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the quarter covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, the Companys Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

During the first, second and third quarters of 2006, the Company acquired multiple businesses and new operations within the cruise and marine segments. The Company is currently in the process of assessing and
integrating internal controls over financial reporting into our financial reporting systems for these acquired businesses. Excluding the acquisitions, there have been no additional changes in the Companys internal controls over financial
reporting during the Companys most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal controls over financial reporting. See Note 2 to our Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements included in Item 1 for discussion of the acquisitions and related financial data.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION



|Item 1. | Legal Proceedings.
|------- | ------------------

The Company is not a party to any material
pending legal proceedings. The Company is from time to time threatened or involved in litigation incidental to its business. The Company believes that the outcome of all current litigation will not have a material adverse effect on its business,
financial condition, cash flows or results of operations.



|Item 1A. | Risk Factors.
|-------- | -------------

The following risk factors should be read in
conjunction with the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2005.

The nature of our engineering and construction business exposes us to potential liability claims and contract disputes which may reduce our profits.

We engage in construction activities for marina facilities where design, construction or systems failures can result in substantial injury or damage to third parties. We
and/or our subsidiaries have been and may in future be named as a defendant in legal proceedings where parties may make a claim for damages or other remedies with respect to our projects or other matters. These claims generally arise in the normal
course of our business. When it is determined that we have liability, we may not be covered by insurance or, if covered, the dollar amount of these liabilities may exceed our policy limits. In addition, even where insurance is maintained for such
exposures, the policies have deductibles resulting in our assuming exposure for a layer of coverage with respect to any such claims. Any liability not covered by our insurance, in excess of our insurance limits or, if covered by insurance but
subject to a high deductible, could result in a significant loss for us, which claims may reduce our profits and cash available for operations.



28

##### Table of Contents

Our use of the percentage-of-completion method of accounting could result in a reduction or reversal of previously
recorded revenues or profits.

Under our accounting procedures, we measure and recognize our marine construction profits and revenues under the
percentage of completion accounting methodology. This methodology allows us to recognize revenues and profits ratably over the life of a contract by comparing the amount of the costs incurred to date against the total amount of costs expected to be
incurred. The effect of revisions to revenues and estimated costs is recorded when the amounts are known and can be reasonably estimated, and these revisions can occur at any time and could be material. Given the uncertainties associated with these
types of contracts, it is possible for actual costs to vary from estimates previously made, which may result in reductions or reversals of previously recorded revenues and profits.

We have international operations that are subject to foreign economic and political uncertainties. Unexpected and adverse changes in the foreign countries in which we operate could result in project disruptions,
increased costs and potential losses.

Our business is subject to fluctuations in demand and to changing domestic and international economic and
political conditions which are beyond our control. Operating in the international marketplace exposes us to a number of risks including:



| |  |  | abrupt changes in foreign government policies and regulations,
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | embargoes,
| | - |  | ----------



| |  |  | trade restrictions;
| | - |  | -------------------



| |  |  | tax increases;
| | - |  | --------------



| |  |  | United States government policies, and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------



| |  |  | international hostilities.
| | - |  | --------------------------

We also face significant risks due to civil
strife, acts of war, terrorism and insurrection. Our level of exposure to these risks will vary with respect to each project, depending on the particular stage of each such project. For example, our risk exposure with respect to a project in an
early development stage will generally be less than our risk exposure with respect to a project in the middle of construction. To the extent that our international business is affected by unexpected and adverse foreign economic and political
conditions, we may experience project disruptions and losses. Project disruptions and losses could significantly reduce our revenues and profits.

Our
international operations expose us to foreign currency fluctuations that could increase our U.S. dollar costs or reduce our U.S. dollar revenues.

Our
international contracts are typically denominated in foreign currencies, which results in our foreign operations facing the additional risk of fluctuating currency values and exchange rates, hard currency shortages and controls on currency exchange.
Changes in the value of foreign currencies could increase our U.S. dollar costs for, or reduce our U.S. dollar revenues from, our foreign operations. Any increased costs or reduced revenues as a result of foreign currency fluctuations could affect
our profits.

Past and future environmental, safety and health regulations could impose significant additional costs on us that reduce our profits.

We are subject to numerous environmental laws and health and safety regulations. Our projects can involve the handling of hazardous and other highly
regulated materials which, if improperly handled or disposed of, could subject us to civil and criminal liabilities. It is impossible to reliably predict the full nature and effect of judicial, legislative or regulatory developments relating to
health and safety regulations and environmental protection regulations applicable to our operations. The applicable regulations, as well as the technology and length of time available to comply with those regulations, continue to develop and change.
In addition, past activities could also have a material impact on us.

##### Table of Contents

If we experience delays and/or defaults in customer payments, we could suffer liquidity problems or we could be unable
to recover all expenditures.

Because of the nature of our marine construction contracts, at times we commit resources to marina projects prior to
receiving payments from the customer in amounts sufficient to cover expenditures on client projects as they are incurred. Delays in customer payments may require us to make a working capital investment. If a customer defaults in making its payments
on a project in which we have devoted significant resources, it could have a material negative effect on our results of operations.
