Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements

 

 

Note 1:  Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations.  The information furnished in the interim condensed financial statements includes normal recurring adjustments and reflects all adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements.  Although management believes the disclosures and information presented are adequate to make the information not misleading, it is suggested that these interim financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company’s most recent audited financial statements and notes thereto included in its Form 10-K.  Operating results for the six months ended February 28, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending August 31, 2014.

 

Note 2:  Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company is a development stage enterprise with losses since inception and a limited operating history.  These factors, among others, may indicate that the Company will be unable to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

 

The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.  The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis and ultimately to attain profitability.  The Company intends to seek additional funding through equity offerings to fund its business plan.  There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising additional funds.

 

Note 3:  Related Party Transactions

 

As of February 28, 2014, the Company has a secured promissory note to the sole officer and director for $113,026 for working capital.  The loan carries a 6% interest rate, matures on demand and is secured by the sailing vessel. Accrued interest payable on the loan totaled $16,510 as of February 28, 2014.

 

For the six month period ended February 28, 2014 the sole officer of the Company contributed services and rent valued at $1,740. This amount has been booked to additional paid in capital.

 

Note 4:  Equity Stock Transactions

 

During the six months ended February 28, 2014 the Company issued 20,000 shares of common stock in satisfaction of a common stock subscription of $3,000.

Part I. Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations

 

Forward-looking statements

 

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of Rosewind Corporation (the “Company”), which are included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking information. Forward-looking information includes statements relating to future actions, future performance, costs and expenses, interest rates, outcome of contingencies, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, business strategies, cost savings, objectives of management, and other such matters of the Company. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking information to encourage companies to provide prospective information about themselves without fear of litigation so long as that information is identified as forward-looking and is accompanied by meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the information. Forward-looking information may be included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or may be incorporated by reference from other documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by the Company. You can find many of these statements by looking for words including, for example, “believes”, “expects”, “anticipates”, “estimates” or similar expressions in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or in documents incorporated by reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information or future events.

 

We have based the forward-looking statements relating to our operations on our management’s current expectations, estimates and projections about our Company and the industry in which we operate. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that we cannot predict. In particular, we have based many of these forward-looking statements on assumptions about future events that may prove to be inaccurate. Accordingly, our actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by these forward-looking statements. Any differences could result from a variety of factors, including, but not limited to general economic and business conditions, competition, and other factors.

 

 

Financial Condition and Results of Operation

 

We are a development stage company. The Company’s mission is to teach offshore sailing. Our philosophy is that people learn to sail across oceans best by direct experience. The “learn by doing experience” will enable the successful graduate to enjoy offshore cruising at a reduced level of risk by methodically preparing themselves and their boat.

 

We have relocated and significantly prepared our vessel for operation as a sailing school, but, as of the date of this report we have collected full tuition from only two students.  We have no permanent base for our sailing vessel. Communication with our vessel is by HAM radio and satellite phone while at sea and by land telephone, cell phone, fax or internet, as available, while in port. We conduct company administration, logistics and marketing from our US offices.

 

During June of 2008 we completed a two week training voyage with our first student on a “share expense” basis. This voyage was from Nelson, New Zealand to Noumea, New Caledonia. No net revenue was generated. We confirmed the viability of our curriculum and we received a positively worded testimonial letter from the non-related third party student.

 

-11-

 

 

 

 

We conducted our second student training voyage in April 2009, a third during July of 2012 and our fourth training voyage in May 2013. Net revenue of $5,250 was earned for the voyages. All students have been non-related third parties.

 

We have had $5,250 in operating revenues since inception, March 1, 2005 through February 28, 2014.  We have incurred operating expenses totaling $584,098 as of February 28, 2014. Such expenses consisted primarily of general and administrative, professional fees and services along with costs incurred to refurbish and relocate our sailing vessel. We have generated an accumulated deficit of $(606,907) as of February 28, 2014 and our losses continue to mount.

 

Our net loss increased by $5,186 or 15% to $38,703 from $33,517 for the six month period ended February 28, 2014 compared with the prior year six month period ended February 28, 2013. This was primarily attributed to boat repair and maintenance expense and management expense decreasing by 40% over the prior year and consulting fees increasing by 84% and interest expense increasing by 47% over the prior year.  We attribute these changes to the yacht being at sea or docked for the majority of the year, an increase in the interest charged on the loan payable as the balance of the loan increases, and an increase in consulting fees during the recent quarter.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

At February 28, 2014, we had $184 in cash and a working capital deficit of $(152,948).  As of the date of this report our liquidity and capital resources continue to decline and our ability to generate student revenue remains unproven.

 

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

No response required.

 

 

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Our Chief Executive Officer has reviewed the effectiveness of our "disclosure controls and procedures" (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c)) within the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and has concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that material information relating to the Company is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported in a timely manner. There were no changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could materially affect these controls subsequent to the last day they were evaluated by our Chief Executive Officer, who is our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer.

 

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the last quarterly period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II.    Other Information

 

Item 1 -  Legal Proceedings.

 

No response required.

 

 

Item 1A.  Risk Factors

 

The documents and registrations we now have are believed sufficient. We have had discussions with the Coast Guard to verify that our students will be considered as crew on our US Coast Guard Documented vessel while in passage from a port in one foreign country to a port in a different foreign country. Under US Coast Guard policy, we need not obtain any additional foreign certification or licensing on our vessel to undertake this type of passage with student crew aboard. We have no present plan, and there is no foreseeable future need to apply to any foreign government for any type of document, registration, certification, or license, commercial or otherwise for our vessel. Securing and maintaining any additional licenses, should such be deemed necessary by any governmental jurisdiction for commercial use of our sailing vessel will be expensive and time consuming. Should this or any related, but presently unforeseen, requirement significantly delay or prevent us from generating revenue from our vessel and planned operations, then our cash reserves could become significantly depleted. An unfavorable outcome in connection with these risks will likely cause an investor to lose his entire investment.

 

SINCE WE HAVE LIMITED REVENUES AND OUR COMPANY IS NEW AND HAS ONLY RECENTLY COMMENCED PLANNED OPERATIONS, WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO GENERATE SIGNIFICANT REVENUE IN THE NEAR FUTURE. FURTHER, THERE IS NO ASSURANCE THAT WE WILL EVER GENERATE SIGNIFICANT REVENUE. WE HAVE NOT GENERATED SIGNIFICANT REVENUE SINCE INCEPTION AND WE HAVE EXPERIENCED LOSSES SINCE INCEPTION. FAILURE TO GENERATE SUFFICIENT REVENUE TO PAY EXPENSES AS THEY COME DUE WILL RESULT IN THE FAILURE OF OUR COMPANY AND THE COMPLETE LOSS OF ANY MONEY INVESTED TO PURCHASE OUR SHARES.

 

We estimate that our present cash is not sufficient to sustain our business. Should student revenues not materialize as planned our business will need to find sources of cash to sustain operations. In the event that we are unable to find sufficient cash to sustain operations we would be forced to close our business and any investment in our shares would be a total loss.

 

-13-

 

 

 

 

 

AS A PUBLIC COMPANY, OUR FUTURE COST OF DOING BUSINESS WILL LIKELY INCREASE BECAUSE OF NECESSARY EXPENSES WHICH INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO, ANNUAL AUDITS, LEGAL COSTS, SEC REPORTING COSTS, COSTS OF A TRANSFER AGENT AND THE COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH  FEES AND COMPLIANCE. FURTHER, OUR MANAGEMENT MAY NEED TO INVEST SIGNIFICANT TIME AND ENERGY TO STAY CURRENT WITH THE PUBLIC COMPANY RESPONSIBILITIES OF OUR BUSINESS AND WILL THEREFORE HAVE LITTLE TIME AVAILABLE TO APPLY TO OTHER TASKS NECESSARY TO OUR SURVIVAL. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THE BURDEN OF OPERATING AS A PUBLIC COMPANY WILL CAUSE US TO FAIL TO ACHIEVE PROFITABILITY. IF WE EXHAUST OUR FUNDS, OUR BUSINESS WILL FAIL AND OUR INVESTORS WILL LOOSE ALL MONEY INVESTED IN OUR STOCK.

 

We estimate that remaining a public company will cost us in excess of $25,000 annually. This is in addition to all of the other cost of doing business. Therefore, it is essential that we grow our business rapidly to achieve profits and maintain adequate cash flow to pay the cost of remaining public. If we fail to pay public company costs, as such costs are incurred, we will become delinquent in our reporting obligations and our shares may no longer remain qualified for quotation on a public market.

 

WE ARE AT AN EARLY STAGE OF DEVELOPMENT.  WE HAVE BEGUN TO MARKET BUT HAVE NOT YET GENERATED SIGNIFICANT REVENUES.  IF WE ARE UNSUCCESSFUL IN MARKETING OUR SERVICE, OUR SECURITIES MAY BE ILLIQUID OR WORTHLESS.

 

Our operations to date have consisted primarily of acquiring, refitting and relocating our sailing vessel. An ongoing commitment of substantial resources to refit and maintain our vessel with safety equipment is required to operate as a training vessel. We do not know if we will be able to complete these tasks. We have located only three paying students for training aboard our vessel. Accordingly, we do not know if and when we will generate significant revenue. Because of these uncertainties, we might never generate enough revenue to allow shareholders to recoup and profit from their investment.

 

SINCE WE HAVE A HISTORY OF OPERATING LOSSES AND EXPECT EXPENSES AND LOSSES TO INCREASE IN THE NEAR TERM, WE DO NOT KNOW IF WE WILL EVER BECOME PROFITABLE OR THAT OUR INVESTORS WILL EVER RECOUP OR PROFIT FROM THEIR INVESTMENT IN OUR SHARES.

 

From the date of incorporation to February 28, 2014, our accumulated losses are $606,907. Since inception we have earned no significant revenues. We expect expenses and losses to increase in the near term as we fund yacht maintenance, yacht upgrades and incur general and administrative and marketing expenses. We expect to continue to incur substantial operating losses unless and until sailing school operations generate sufficient revenues to fund continuing operations. As a result, investors might never recoup their investment or profit from their investment in our shares.

 

SINCE OUR SUCCESS IS DEPENDENT ON COMPLETION OF KEY TASKS INCLUDING MARKETING AND THE INTRODUCTION OF OUR SERVICES INTO A LIMITED AND SPECIALIZED MARKET, AND SINCE WE HAVE EXPERIENCE SETBACKS AND DISAPPOINTING RESULTS TO DATE, WE DO NOT KNOW IF WE WILL BE ABLE TO COMPLETE OUR KEY TASKS.

 

The actual results, if any, of marketing efforts and planned operations are difficult to predict and will vary dramatically due to factors we cannot presently control or predict. These factors could include, the world economy, weather, political instability, health risks in countries where students of the sailing school are required to rendezvous with our yacht, fluctuations in the value of local currency and fluctuations in availability of port facilities, airline fares, diesel fuel, repair parts, skilled technicians and various other factors potentially detrimental to planned operations that may arise without notice. Loss of the services of our President could force operations to be delayed or suspended. Our failure to achieve marketing and operational objectives will mean that investors will not be able to recoup their investment or to receive a profit on their investment.

WE WILL CONTINUE TO REQUIRE SUBSTANTIAL ADDITIONAL FUNDS FOR GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE, REPAIRS, TRAVEL, SUPPLIES AND MARKETING COSTS. WE MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO OBTAIN ADDITIONAL FUNDING ON ACCEPTABLE TERMS, IF AT ALL. WITHOUT ADDITIONAL FUNDING, WE WILL FAIL.

 

We will require substantial additional funds to achieve self-sustaining operation of our sailing school. We may seek further funding through public or private equity or debt financings, collaborative arrangements with sailboat charter groups or agents or from other sources. Further equity financings may substantially dilute shareholders' investment in our shares. If we cannot obtain the required additional funding, then investors will not be able to recoup their investment or to profit from their investment.

 

In addition, we have limited experience in marketing and sales and we intend to develop only a very limit sales and marketing infrastructure to commercialize our service.

 

SINCE WE HAVE ONLY ONE DIRECTOR WHO ALSO SERVES AS OUR PRESIDENT, CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER AND SECRETARY, DECISIONS WHICH AFFECT THE COMPANY WILL BE MADE BY ONLY ONE INDIVIDUAL. FURTHER, THE SON OF OUR SOLE DIRECTOR, PRESIDENT, CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER AND SECRETARY, IS A SHAREHOLDER AND HAS SERVED AS OUR CAPTAIN. IT IS LIKELY THAT CONFLICTS OF INTEREST WILL ARISE IN THE DAY TO DAY OPERATION OF OUR BUSINESS. SUCH CONFLICTS, IF NOT PROPERLY RESOLVED, COULD HAVE A MATERIAL NEGATIVE IMPACT ON OUR BUSINESS.

 

In the past, the company has issued shares for cash, assets and services at prices which were solely determined by James B. Wiegand. At that time, James B. Wiegand made a determination of both the value of services and assets exchanged for our shares, and, as well, the price per share used as compensation. Transactions of this nature were made at less than arm’s length and without input from a non-interested third party. Future transactions of a like nature could dilute the percentage ownership of the company represented by shares of an individual investor. While the company believes its past transactions were appropriate, and plans to act in good faith in the future, an investor in our shares will have no ability to alter such transactions as they may occur in the future and, further, may not be consulted by the company in advance of any such transactions. An investor who is unwilling to endure such dilution should not purchase our shares.

 

THE LAWS WHICH GOVERN MERGER TRANSACTIONS PROVIDE THAT SINCE OUR SOLE DIRECTOR AND OFFICER AND SIGNIFICANT SHAREHOLDERS  TOGETHER OWN  OVER 50% OF OUR OUTSTANDING SHARES, WE MAY ENTER INTO A SHARE EXCHANGE, REVERSE MERGER OR OTHER SIMILAR TRANSACTION WITH A PRIVATE COMPANY IN AN UNRELATED BUSINESS WITHOUT THE PRIOR APPROVAL OF UNAFFILIATED SHAREHOLDERS.

 

The various securities laws applicable to our company, our management may elect to enter and consummate a transaction to enter a new business. In that event, our shareholders would likely receive only an information statement with certain disclosures as required by law and would likely not be in a position to approve or disapprove the transaction. Investors who are unwilling to accept the uncertainty of new management, a new business plan, likely dilution and all the numerous related uncertainties that may materialize in the event such a transaction is consummated should not purchase our shares.

 

Management has no present plan to alter its business plan and/or enter such a transaction.

WE DEPEND UPON OUR KEY PERSONNEL AND THEY WOULD BE DIFFICULT TO REPLACE.

 

We believe that our success will depend on the continued involvement of our senior management, i.e. our President, James B. Wiegand, who is 67 years old, and who also is responsible for boat maintenance, training operations and serves as our captain. Mr. Wiegand is involved in other business activities and we have no written employment agreement with him. If our President proves unwilling or unable to continue to serve then operations together with administrative functions and SEC reporting could be restricted or delayed.  In light of the facts that our vessel is generally well maintained and student load has been below projections, Mr. Wiegand has been able to stay current with all needs of the Company under its present business plan. As required, our President, who has over 50 years of sailing experience, but holds no license, plans to conduct our training voyages. If we are unable to operate with one employee our business may suffer and investors would likely lose all money invested.

  

RISKS RELATED TO OUR INDUSTRY

 

SHAREHOLDERS RISK THAT WE WILL BE UNABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY MARKET OUR SERVICE. WE HAVE NOT YET ESTABLISHED THAT OUR SERVICE WILL BE SAFE, EFFECTIVE OR ACCEPTED IN THE MARKET.

 

The training of offshore sailors is a niche market of undefined size and our mission to serve this market is likely to meet with slow acceptance and minimal sales. As of the date of this report, we have trained only six students. The students responded to our classified advertisement. Our first student provided us with a handwritten letter of recommendation and we now provide prospective students with a copy of his letter and related editorial coverage that ran in a sailing magazine. We are presently evaluating options to increase our student bookings. These include land based seminars, cooperative programs with sailing schools that offer only basic training, expansion of on board dive facilities, better use of the internet to recruit students. We are exposed to the dangers of bad weather, commercial ship traffic and numerous other risks inherent in voyaging across oceans in a small boat. Our vessel could be disabled, damaged or lost at sea. A student or staff member could be injured or lost at sea in spite of precautions. In the event our company fails to increase student revenue or encounters a serious and sustained problem with its operations or staffing, shareholders would likely lose their entire investment

 

WE INTEND TO UTILIZE OUR VESSEL TO TRAIN STUDENTS OF OUR SAILING SCHOOL. WE BELIEVE WE HAVE COMPLIED WITH THE APPLICABLE REQUIREMENTS OF THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION AND U.S. COAST GUARD. HOWEVER,  WE HAVE NOT IDENTIFIED OR ATTEMPTED TO COMPLY WITH ANY APPLICABLE CERTIFICATION OR LICENSING REQUIREMENTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTIONS.

 

Securing and maintaining licenses deemed necessary by any governmental jurisdiction for commercial use of our sailing vessel will be expensive and time consuming. Should this or any related requirement significantly delay or prevent us from generating revenue from our vessel and planned operations, then our cash reserves could be depleted. An unfavorable outcome in connection with this risk is possible; however we will not be in a position to predict the outcome. In the event we are unable to comply, we could be forced to abandon efforts to secure licenses and certifications. A significantly unfavorable and continuing outcome in connection with these risks will likely cause an investor to lose his entire investment.

REGULATORY AND LOCAL ADMINISTRATIVE AUTHORITIES HAVE THE POWER TO INTRODUCE NEW REGULATIONS OR TAXES THAT REQUIRE ADDITIONAL AND POTENTIALLY EXPENSIVE COMPLIANCE. SINCE WE HAVE ONLY LIMITED EXPERIENCE WITH OUR SERVICE, WE MIGHT BE UNABLE OR UNWILLING TO COMPLY WITH SUCH NEW REGULATION.

 

Changes in existing regulations, the adoption of new regulations or the erratic enforcement of or reinterpretation of existing statute could adversely affect the development and marketing of our service. Since we have limited operating history, government regulation could cause unexpected delays and adversely impact our business in areas where our inexperience might lead to failure in complying with applicable requirements. Such failure to comply might also result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties, recall or seizure of our vessel, or partial or total suspension of operations. Any of these penalties could delay or prevent the promotion, marketing or sale of our service. We have neither legal, lobbying or other resources to favorably alter the course of such developments, and should they occur, shareholders would likely lose their entire investment.

 

Our vessel and our sailing school operations have recently been relocated to California on a trial basis. As of the date of this report we have not realized any significant revenue from California based operations and we have not filed a California State Income tax Return. We have not applied for any license to do business, received any tax bill from the State of California or voluntarily paid any tax to the State. Nonetheless, we understand that we are likely subject us to a minimum tax charged by the state of California to do business within California. In connection with this contingency, our accountant has recommended that we include an $800 annual expense for doing business in California in our financial statements. Accordingly we have made allowance for such a cash outlay.

 

Additionally, various counties located in California assess personal property taxes on business or personal assets located within their jurisdiction. To date we have not experienced any similar situation elsewhere; however, during early 2013 we received such a tax notice from Alameda County where our vessel was on January 1, 2013 at San Leandro Marina. We have disputed the amount of  tax which we believe was not calculated  based upon an accurate valuation of our vessel and have made no payment to Alameda County in connection with their notice. This issue remains open but we anticipate that in the future we may need to pay significant personal tax assessments should we elect to maintain our vessel in a marina within the State. Further, we understand that in the event such local personal property taxes, regardless of their accuracy, remain unpaid, and we are not able to take advantage of provisions we believe exempt transient vessels from the tax, we could find our vessel subject to aggressive tax collection methods, including tax lien and/or associated penalties.  As of the date of this report we are not able to predict the outcome of this and any related uncertainties.

 

IF OUR COMPETITORS SUCCEED IN DEVELOPING COMPETING SERVICES EARLIER THAN WE DO, IN OBTAINING REGULATORY APPROVALS THAT MAY BECOME MANDATORY FOR SUCH SERVICES MORE RAPIDLY THAN WE DO, OR IN DEVELOPING SERVICES THAT ARE MORE EFFECTIVE OR LESS EXPENSIVE THAN THE SERVICES WE DEVELOP, WE WILL HAVE DIFFICULTY COMPETING WITH THEM.

 

We have expended significant financial resources to develop our curriculum and prepare our vessel. Thus far our efforts have proved unsuccessful in the marketplace. Our future success depends on our ability to timely identify new market trends and develop, introduce and support new and enhanced services on a successful and timely basis. We might not be successful in developing or introducing our services.

 

EVEN IF WE CONTINUE TO EXPEND THE FUNDS NECESSARY TO MAINTAIN OUR YACHT TO THE HIGH STANDARD NECESSARY FOR SAFETY AT SEA, AND EVEN IF CAPABLE PERSONNEL ARE AVAILABLE, WE HAVE NOT YET DEMONSTRATED SIGNIFICANT MARKET ACCEPTANCE AND OUR SERVICE MIGHT NOT GAIN MEANINGFUL MARKET ACCEPTANCE AMONG THE POSSIBLY LIMITED NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO WANT TO LEARN TO VOYAGE UNDER SAIL.

 

The degree of market acceptance will depend on a number of factors, including:

 

demonstration of the efficacy and safety of our training methods and planned curriculum;
cost-effectiveness;
potential advantages of alternative sailing schools which may offer similar opportunities;
the effectiveness of marketing through classified advertisements.
achieving market acceptance of our hands-on approach to the training of sailors.

 

OUR YACHT AND ALL COMPANY OPERATIONS ARE PRESENTLY UNDER-INSURED AND MAY CONTINUE TO BE UNDER-INSURED AND THUS WE ARE, AND MAY REMAIN, EXPOSED TO UNLIMITED POTENTIAL LIABILITY RISKS FROM CLIENTS, STAFF OR OTHERS.

 

Our planned sailing school operations create a risk of liability for injury or loss of life of participants. We manage our liability risks by following the proper protocols of good seamanship. We presently operate with only limited liability, asset loss or damage insurance. As of the date of this report, we have made application to upgrade our insurance. Upgraded insurance coverage is expensive and difficult to obtain. In the future, insurance coverage may not be available to us on acceptable terms, if at all. Further, without upgraded insurance our marketing efforts may not succeed and we may be barred from operating from otherwise available ports. To date we have been unable to obtain sufficient insurance coverage on reasonable terms or to otherwise protect against potential liability claims. As a result, we might not be able to commercialize our sailing school. If we face a future liability claim or loss of our under-insured yacht, we will suffer a material adverse effect on our financial condition and our investors would lose their entire investment.
