     NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
     
     
     Note 1.  Basis of Presentation
     
        In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited
             consolidated financial statements contain all
             adjustments necessary (consisting of only normal
             recurring adjustments) to present fairly South Seas
             Properties Company Limited Partnership ("South Seas")
             consolidated financial position as of June 30, 1997 and
             December 31, 1996 and the consolidated results of its
             operations for the three and six months then ended and
             its consolidated cash flows for the six months ended
             June 30, 1996 and 1997.  The results of operations for
             the six month period ended June 30, 1997 are not
             indicative of the results to be expected for the full
             year due to the seasonality of the business operation. 
             For further information, refer to the audited
             consolidated financial statements and notes thereto,
             included in South Seas' 10-K report.  Certain amounts in
             the financial statements have been reclassified to
             conform with the current presentation.  These
             reclassifications had no effect on the results of
             operations previously reported.  The consolidated
             balance sheet at December 31, 1996 has been derived from
             the audited financial statements at that date but does
             not include all disclosures required by generally
             accepted accounting principles.  Refer to South Seas
             annual 10-K report for complete footnote disclosure.
     
     
     Note 2.  Computation of Earnings Per Unit
     
        Primary earnings per unit of partnership interests are
             computed based on the weighted average number of
             partnership unit equivalents (unit options, if
             applicable) outstanding of 4.43 million and 4.33
             million, for the three months ended June 30, 1997 and
             1996, respectively, and 4.43 million and 4.32 million
             for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996,
             respectively.  The computation of fully diluted earnings
             per unit assumed conversion of the 10% convertible
             subordinated notes due April 2003, accordingly, net
             earnings were increased by interest expense on the
             subordinated notes.  For the 1997 and 1996 fully diluted
             earnings per unit computation, units were computed to be
             8.57 million and 6.46 million for the six months ended
             June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. For the three
             months ended June 30, 1997 and fully diluted earnings
             per unit is the same as primary earnings per unit
             because such calculation is anti-dilutive for those
             periods.
     
     Note 3.  Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
     
        In February, 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards
             Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
             No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" ("FAS 128"), which becomes
             effective for South Seas for the year ended December 31,
             1997.  FAS 128 replaces the presentation of primary
             earnings per unit with a presentation of basic earnings
             per unit which excludes dilution and is computed by
             dividing income available to partnership unit holders by
             the weighted average number of partnership units
             outstanding for the period.  Diluted earnings per unit
             reflect the potential dilution that would occur if
             securities or other contracts to issue units were
             exercised or converted into units or resulted in the
             issuance of units that then shared in the earnings of
             the entity.  Diluted earnings per unit is computed
             similarly to fully diluted earnings per unit pursuant to
             Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 15, "Earnings
             Per Share."  FAS 128 also requires dual presentation of
             basic and diluted earnings per unit on the face of the
             income statement for all entities with complex capital
             structures and requires a reconciliation of the
             numerator and denominator of the basic earnings per unit
             computation to the numerator and denominator of the
             diluted earnings per unit comparison.  The
             implementation of FAS 128 is not expected to have a
             material impact on South Seas' reported results of
             operations.
     
        In addition, during 1997, the Financial Accounting
             Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting
             Standards No. 129, "Disclosure of Information about
             Capital Structure" ("FAS 129"), No. 130, "Reporting
             Comprehensive Income" ("FAS 130"), and No. 131,
             "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
             Information" ("FAS 131"). FAS 129 consolidates the
             existing requirements relating to disclosure of certain
             information about an entity's capital structure. FAS 130
             establishes standards for reporting comprehensive income
             to present a measure of all changes in equity that
             result from renegotiated transactions and other economic
             events of the period other than transactions with owners
             in their capacity as owners. 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 and includes net
             income. FAS 131 specifies revised guidelines for
             determining an entity's operating segments and the type
             and level of financial information to be disclosed. FAS
             131 requires that management identify operating segments
             based on the way that management disaggregates the
             entity for making internal operating decisions. These
             financial accounting standards are effective for fiscal
             years beginning after December 31, 1997. Management has
             not determined what impact these standards, when
             adopted, will have on South Seas' financial statements.
     
     Note 4.  
     
        On January 6, 1997 South Seas purchased from an
             affiliated limited partnership, real and personal
             property used in the operation of a 32 unit motel
             (Seaside Inn) on Sanibel Island, Florida for $6.5
             million.  In connection with the acquisition, South Seas
             assumed liabilities of $2.5 million.  Unaudited revenues
             and net income for the Seaside Inn for the year ended
             December 31, 1996 were $1.4 million and $43,000,
             respectively.
     
        The balance of the purchase price was made via a cash
             payment of $3.4 million which was allocated as follows
             (in thousands):
     
     
              Cash payment                     $3,411
     
         Allocated to:

         Debt assumed                          (2,505)
         Repayment of advance from South Seas    (326)
         Down payment                            (100)
         Other                                    (10)
                                               $3,411
     
     Note 5.  Seaside Inn Revolving Credit Line
     
        In May, 1997, South Seas amended and increased the $2.5
             million loan held by Barnett Bank, N.A. secured by the
             Seaside Inn to a $3.5 million revolving credit note and
             caused Barnett to assign the loan to Credit Lyonnais,
             New York Branch, Barnett Bank, N.A. and Finova Capital
             Corporation (collectively, the "Lender") and to pledge
             the Seaside Inn to the Lender for security.  The amount
             available under this line was $923,000 as of June 30,
             1997.
     
     Note 6.  Revolving Credit Line
     
        In connection with the $40 million revolving line of
             credit with Credit Lyonnais, New York Branch, South Seas
             had available $20.4 million at June 30, 1997.  South
             Seas applies surplus seasonal working capital or draws
             working capital based on seasonal needs to reduce or
             increase the outstanding revolving loan balance.

     Item 2 -MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
              CONDITION  AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
     
       The following discussion should be read in conjunction
     with "Selected Historical Financial Data," "Selected
     Consolidated Financial Data" and the audited consolidated
     financial statements for South Seas and the notes thereto
     appearing in the annual 10-K report for the year ended
     December 31, 1996.
     
     GENERAL
     
      South Seas is one of the largest owners and operators of
     upscale beachfront destination resorts and hotels in Florida. 
     South Seas owns, leases and/or manages 10 resort and
     recreational properties.  Included are seven owned resort and
     hotel properties, one 18 hole golf course, and one managed
     resort property, all located on Sanibel, Captiva, Estero and
     Marco Islands off Florida's gulf coast (collectively referred
     to as the "Properties"). South Seas, through its 99% owned
     subsidiary, South Seas Resorts Company Limited Partnership
     ("Management Company"), also operates under a lease
     arrangement a resort and spa located on Tampa Bay, Florida. 
     The Properties are designed to appeal to families, leisure
     travelers and business groups.  The Properties range in size
     and style from the 552-unit South Seas Plantation resort on
     Captiva Island, to the 269 unit, 11 story Marco Island
     Radisson, to the 30-unit Song of the Sea Inn, a bed-and-breakfast
      located on Sanibel Island.  By offering a wide
     variety of price points and vacation experiences, South Seas
     is able to appeal to a broad section of the vacation market. 
     The Properties offer a combined total of approximately 1,700
     condominium and hotel units, consisting of approximately
     2,300 guest rooms, including luxurious beach homes, fully
     equipped condominiums, suites, cottages and hotel rooms. 
     South Seas also owns and operates The Dunes Golf and Tennis
     Club on Sanibel Island, which features an 18-hole, par 70
     golf course, seven soft surface tennis courts, full banquet
     and restaurant facilities and other amenities.  Guests
     staying at any of the Properties have access to the amenities
     and vacation activities offered at all of the Properties. 
     South Seas believes that this feature, combined with the
     Properties' attractive locations, enhances customer
     satisfaction and guests' perceptions of value.
     
     SEASONALITY
     
     Properties owned or operated by South Seas are affected by
     normally recurring seasonal patterns.  Room rates are
     substantially higher and occupancy is somewhat higher during
     the months of January, February, March and April than during
     the remainder of the year.  Approximately 45% of South Seas'
     revenues is earned in the first four months of each year. 
     Accordingly, South Seas' typically reports lower revenue and
     net income in the second, third and fourth calendar quarters. 
     
     RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,
     1997 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996
     
         Revenues.  Revenues consist principally of room rentals,
     food and beverage sales, retail sales, spa and fitness
     revenues, and golf course operations.  Other revenue includes
     marina operations, long distance telephone charges, fees for
     the use of recreation facilities, commissions from realty
     sales, interest income and other miscellaneous items. 
     Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1997 increased
     by approximately $1.8 million, or 6.0% over the prior period. 
     
     
       Rooms revenues increased by approximately $1.2 million, or
     7.1% over the prior period.  Approximately $402,000, or 32.8%
     of the increase represents room revenues attributable to the
     Seaside Inn (acquired January 6, 1997).  Room revenues at
     resorts owned throughout both periods ("Comparable Resorts")
     increased by approximately $825,000 or 4.7%.  The increase in
     room revenues at Comparable Resorts resulted from an increase
     in the average daily rate ("ADR") and an increase in the
     percentage of occupancy.  ADR at Comparable Resorts was
     $190.35 for 1997, compared to $185.51 in 1996, an increase of
     $4.84, or 2.6%.  Occupancy percentage at Comparable Resorts
     increased to 75.2% for the three months ended June 30, 1997
     from 74.2% for the same period in 1996.  The increase in ADR
     reflects South Seas' efforts to maximize revenue per
     available room ("REVPAR"), during peak demand periods. 
     During the three months ended June 30, 1997, REVPAR for
     Comparable Resorts increased $5.61 or 4.1% over the same
     period in 1996.  The Seaside Inn had an occupancy percentage
     of 85.0%, ADR of $162.21 and REVPAR of $137.93 during the
     three months ended June 30, 1997.
     
       Food and beverage revenues for the three months ended June
     30, 1997 increased by $450,000, or 9.6% over the same period
     in 1996.  Approximately $157,000 or 34.9% of the increase was
     due to increased food and beverage sales at Safety Harbor
     Resort and Spa ("Safety Harbor").  South Seas entered into a
     lease arrangement on the Safety Harbor in June 1995. 
     Management believed it was a property with significant
      "up-side" potential.  After a substantial investment in capital
     improvements (over $2.6 million since lease inception),
     combined with a highly motivated and experienced management
     team, dramatic improvements in results of operations have
     been realized at the resort over 1996.
     
       Other revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1997
     decreased by $125,000, or 2.9% from the prior period. 
     Revenues recognized at the renovated Dunes Golf & Tennis Club
     were approximately $241,000 higher than the prior year.  In
     1996, all annual membership and initiation fees were
     recognized in full at the time of receipt.  This policy was
     consistent with the terms of the non-refundable fees. 
     Although these fees are still non-refundable, in 1997,
     management elected to defer and recognize membership and
     initiation fees pro-rata over the calendar year.  This
     increase was offset by a decrease in the revenues at the
     corporate level of $304,000, primarily due to lower interest
     income of $185,000 (excess funds now used to pay down the
     revolving credit line) and lower management fees of $23,000
     (due to the acquisition of the Seaside Inn, and those fees
     being eliminated in consolidation).
     
         Expenses.  Total expenses for the three months ended June
     30, 1997 increased by approximately $1.2 million, or 4.2%
     over the prior period.  As a percentage of revenues, expenses
     decreased from 98.6% to 97.0%.  Analysis of major financial
     line items follows:
        
       Room expenses for the three months ended June 30, 1997
     increased by $385,000 or 9.9% over the prior period.  Rooms
     expenses at Comparable Resorts increased $306,000 or 7.9%
     over the same period last year.  As a percentage of rooms
     revenues, rooms expenses increased slightly from 22.5% to
     23.1%, primarily due to the additional staff position of
     yield manager.
     
       Sales and marketing costs for the three months ended June
     30, 1997 increased by $384,000 or 21.3% over the prior
     period. As a percentage of total revenues, sales and
     marketing increased from 6.0% in the three months ended June
     30, 1996 to 7.0% for the three months ended June 30, 1997.
     The increase in both dollars and as a percent of revenues was
     a result of direct mail and media initiatives executed within
     the second quarter designed to drive late end of second
     quarter and third quarter revenues (June through September).
     
        General and administrative expense for the three months
     ended June 30, 1997 increased by $304,000, or 5.8% over the prior
     period. Approximately $79,000 or 25.9% of the total increase
     were associated with the Seaside Inn.  As a percentage of
     revenues, general and administrative expense remained
     constant at 17.6%.
     
         Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months
     ended June 30, 1997 increased by $292,000 or 15.9% over the
     prior period.  As a percentage of revenues, depreciation and
     amortization expense increased from 6.3% at June 30, 1996 to
     6.8% at June 30, 1997. The increase in dollars is primarily a
     result of depreciation on recent renovations and capital
     improvements as well as $46,000 (or 15.8% of the total
     increase)attributable to the Seaside Inn acquisition, and
     increased amortization of loan costs.
     
       Net Income.  As a result of the foregoing factors, net
     income for the three months ended June 30, 1997 increased by
     $524,000 or 130.3% compared to the prior period.  The Seaside
     Inn contributed $134,000 or 25.6% of the total increase.
     
     RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997
     COMPARED TO THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996
     
         Revenues. Revenues consist principally of room rentals,
     food and beverage sales, retail sales, spa and fitness
     revenues, and golf course operations. Other revenue includes
     marina operations, long distance telephone charges, fees for
     the use of recreation facilities, commissions from realty
     sales, interest income and other miscellaneous items.
     Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1997 increased by
     $3.8 million, or 5.7% over the prior period.
     
      Rooms revenues increased by approximately $3.3 million, or
     8.1% over the prior period. Approximately $977,000 or 30.0%
     of the increase represents room revenues attributable to the
     Seaside Inn (acquired January 6, 1997). Dramatic improvements
     were also realized at Safety Harbor, growth in occupancy from
     39.7% for the six months ended June 30, 1996 to an occupancy
     percentage of 71.9% for the same period in 1997, produced
     increased rooms revenues of $930,000.
     
       Room revenues at Comparable Resorts increased by
     approximately $2.3 million or 5.7%. The increase in room
     revenues at Comparable Resorts resulted from an increase in
     the ADR and an increase in the percentage of occupancy. ADR
     at Comparable Resorts was $220.14 for 1997, compared to
     $215.43 in 1996, an increase of $4.71 or 2.2%. Occupancy
     percentage at Comparable Resorts increased to 78.8% for the
     six months ended June 30, 1997 from 75.6% for the same period
     in 1996. The increase in ADR reflects South Seas' efforts to
     maximize REVPAR, during peak demand periods. During the six
     months ended June 30, 1997, REVPAR for Comparable Resorts
     increased $10.57 or 6.5% over the same period in 1996. The
     Seaside Inn had an occupancy percentage of 88.5%, ADR of
     $190.56 and REVPAR of $168.62 during the six months ended
     June 30, 1997.
     
       Food and beverage revenues for the six months ended June
     30, 1997 increased by $693,000, or 6.7% over the same period
     in 1996.  Approximately $367,000 or 53.0% of the increase was
     due to increased food and beverage sales at Safety Harbor. 
     South Seas entered into a lease arrangement on the Safety
     Harbor in June 1995.  Management believed it was a property
     with significant "up-side" potential.  After a substantial
     investment in capital improvements (over $2.6 million since
     lease inception), combined with a highly motivated and
     experienced management team, dramatic improvements in results
     of operations have been realized at the resort over 1996.
     
      Other revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1997
     decreased by $498,000, or 5.2% from the prior period. 
     Revenues recognized at the renovated Dunes Golf & Tennis Club
     were approximately $403,000 lower than the prior year.  In
     1996, all annual membership and initiation fees were
     recognized in full at the time of receipt.  This policy was
     consistent with the terms of the non-refundable fees. 
     Although these fees are still non-refundable, in 1997,
     management elected to defer and recognize membership and
     initiation fees pro-rata over the calendar year.  An
     additional decrease in the revenues at the corporate level of
     $458,000 was primarily due to lower interest income of
     $259,000 (excess funds now used to pay down the revolving
     credit line) and lower management fees of $55,000 (due to the
     acquisition of the Seaside Inn, and those fees being
     eliminated in consolidation). These decreases were offset by
     improvements in other revenues at South Seas Plantation of
     $150,000 (due primarily to incentive income earned on lease
     programs) and $265,000 at Safety Harbor (due to significant
     increases in occupancy).
     
       Expenses.  Total expenses for the six months ended June
     30, 1997 increased by $2.6 million, or 4.4% over the prior
     period.  As a percentage of revenues, expenses decreased from
     89.8% to 88.7%.  Analysis of major financial line items
     follows:
        
        Room expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1997
     increased by $768,000 or 9.6% over the prior period.  Rooms
     expenses at Comparable Resorts increased $602,000 or 7.5%
     over the same period last year.  As a percentage of rooms
     revenues, rooms expenses increased slightly from 20.0% to
     20.3%, primarily due to the additional position of yield
     manager.
     
        Sales and marketing costs for the six months ended June
     30, 1997 increased by $219,000 or 5.7% over the prior period. 
     As a percentage of total revenues, sales and marketing
     remained constant at 5.7% for both periods.
     
        General and administrative expense for the six months
     ended June 30, 1997 increased by $767,000, or 7.2% over the prior
     period. Approximately $172,000 or 22.4% of the total increase
     was associated with the Seaside Inn.  As a percentage of
     revenues, general and administrative expense increased
     slightly from 15.8% in 1996 to 16.0% in 1997.
     
       Depreciation and amortization expense for the six months
     ended June 30, 1997 increased by $418,000 or 11.3% over the
     prior period.  As a percentage of revenues, depreciation and
     amortization expense increased from 5.5% at June 30, 1996 to
     5.8% at June 30, 1997. The increase in dollars is primarily a
     result of depreciation on recent renovations and capital
     improvements as well as $93,000 (or 22.2% of the total
     increase)attributable to the Seaside Inn acquisition, and
     increased amortization of loan costs.
     
        Net Income.  As a result of the foregoing factors, net
     income for the six months ended June 30, 1997 increased by
     $1.2 million or 17.3% compared to the prior period.  The
     Seaside Inn contributed $409,000 or 34.7% of the total
     increase.
                                               
     LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
     
      South Seas has historically financed its operations and
     capital expenditures with cash generated from operations,
     bank borrowings, borrowings from private investors, corporate
     bonds and short-term credit facilities.
     
       On March 28, 1996, South Seas completed the public
     offering of
     $43,500,000 of its 10% subordinated notes as offered in the
     Form S-1 Registration Statement ("Notes Offering").  The
     terms of the Notes provided for the payment of interest
     monthly at 10%, and with no principal reduction until
     maturity on April 15, 2003.
     
       The Notes are non-callable during the first four years of
     the term then become redeemable, in whole or in part, at the
     option of South Seas at various redemption prices (108.24% to
     112.62% of principal) during or after the year 2000. 
     Subsequent to the occurrence of certain events, the holders
     of Notes will be offered the opportunity to convert the Notes
     at an exchange rate of $12 per partnership unit (subject to
     adjustment in certain circumstances).  Upon the stated
     maturity of the Notes, holders of Notes will be offered the
     opportunity to convert the Notes at an exchange rate of
     $10.50 per unit (subject to adjustment in certain
     circumstances).
     
       South Seas believes that cash generated by operations,
     together with the proceeds from the Notes Offering will be
     adequate to meet its working capital, debt service and
     capital expenditure requirements through 1997. South Seas'
     outstanding indebtedness, together with the Notes, places
     certain debt service obligations on the partnership. South
     Seas intends to pursue resort and/or hotel acquisitions and
     to a lesser extent development opportunities in order to
     achieve growth in its portfolio of properties.  A portion of
     the expenditures associated with this growth strategy will be
     funded with cash generated from operations and proceeds from
     the Notes Offering.  South Seas believes that it may be
     necessary to obtain additional debt or equity capital in
     order to accommodate its plan for growth and expansion in
     1997 and future periods.
     
       South Seas anticipates that implementation of its growth
     strategy referred to in the preceding paragraph will require
     it to obtain additional debt or equity financing.  The amount
     of additional financing required by South Seas in order to
     implement its growth strategy will depend on several factors,
     including the purchase price and renovation costs associated
     with acquisitions and South Seas' available cash resources at
     the time of a particular transaction.  Although there can be
     no assurance as to South Seas' ability to obtain financing in
     the amounts it requires on commercially reasonable terms, if
     at all, South Seas believes that, based upon its current
     financial condition and results of operations, such financing
     will be available to it.  South Seas' inability to obtain
     additional financing could have a material adverse effect on
     its results of operations, financial condition and future
     prospects.  The indenture places restrictions on the amount
     of additional Funded Indebtedness (as defined in the
     prospectus delivered in connection with the Notes Offering)
     that South Seas may incur.
      
       In December, 1996, South Seas obtained an irrevocable,
     transferable letter of credit in an amount not to exceed
     $3.26 million, for use as a replacement for a reserve fund
     established in connection with the Notes Offering.  No
     amounts had been drawn as of June 30, 1997.
     
       In March, 1997, South Seas retained an investment banking
     firm to advise the partnership on various strategic financial
     alternatives, to realize its' growth plan and enhance its
     equity value.  As of the filing of this report, South Seas,
     together with their investment bankers, have completed their
     initial evaluation of the company's operations.  Several
     alternatives have been outlined and are currently under
     review.
     
        On June 30, 1997, South Seas had cash and cash equivalents
     of approximately $2.2 million, and restricted cash of
     $200,000.  Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $4.2
     million during the six months ended June 30, 1997.
     
      Cash flow from operations was approximately $12.4 million
     for the six months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to $6.1
     million in the prior period.  Cash flow from operations was
     negatively impacted by a $2.1 million increase in interest
     paid during 1996.  This significant increase in interest paid
     was attributed to the early retirement of numerous notes,
     bonds and accrued interest thereon with the proceeds from the
     public offering.  South Seas' other major source of cash in
     the 1996 period was proceeds of $43.5 million (from the Notes
     Offering).  In addition to funding its operating activities,
     South Seas' major uses of cash during the 1996 period were
     principal payments on outstanding debt of approximately $41.7
     million (primarily through proceeds of the Notes Offering),
     capital expenditures and asset purchases of approximately
     $3.5 million, and distributions to partners of approximately
     $610,000.  In 1997, South Seas' major uses of cash included
     payments under the revolving line of credit of $9.0 million,
     the purchase of the Seaside Inn (net of liabilities assumed)
     of $3.4 million, and capital expenditures of $3.9 million. At
     June 30, 1997, South Seas had a combined availability under
     their two revolving lines of credit of $21.3 million.
     
      South Seas is not currently a party to any legal
     proceeding which, in Management's opinion, is likely to have
     a material adverse effect on its operating results or
     financial position.
     
     IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
     
      In February, 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards
     Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
     128, "Earnings Per Share" ("FAS 128"), which becomes
     effective for South Seas for the year ended December 31,
     1997.  FAS 128 replaces the presentation of primary earnings
     per unit with a presentation of basic earnings per unit which
     excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income
     available to partnership unit holders by the weighted average
     number of partnership units outstanding for the period. 
     Diluted earnings per unit reflect the potential dilution that
     would occur if securities or other contracts to issue units
     were exercised or converted into units or resulted in the
     issuance of units that then shared in the earnings of the
     entity.  Diluted earnings per unit is computed similarly to
     fully diluted earnings per unit pursuant to Accounting
     Principles Board Opinion No. 15, "Earnings Per Share." FAS
     128 also requires dual presentation of basic and diluted
     earnings per unit on the face of the income statement for all
     entities with complex capital structures and requires a
     reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic
     earnings per unit computation to the numerator and
     denominator of the diluted earnings per unit comparison. The
     implementation of FAS 128 is not expected to have a material
     impact on South Seas' reported results of operations.
     
     In addition, during 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards
     Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
     129, "Disclosure of Information about Capital Structure"
     ("FAS 129"), No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" ("FAS
     130"), and No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an
     Enterprise and Related Information" ("FAS 131"). FAS 129
     consolidates the existing requirements relating to disclosure
     of certain information about an entity's capital structure.
     FAS 130 establishes standards for reporting comprehensive
     income to present a measure of all changes in equity that
     result from renegotiated transactions and other economic
     events of the period other than transactions with owners in
     their capacity as owners. 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 and includes net income. FAS 131 specifies
     revised guidelines for determining an entity's operating
     segments and the type and level of financial information to
     be disclosed. FAS 131 requires that management identify
     operating segments based on the way that management
     disaggregates the entity for making internal operating
     decisions. These financial accounting standards are effective
     for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 1997.
     Management has not determined what impact these standards,
          when adopted, will have on South Seas' financial statements.<PAGE>
