Yachts are designed and built to be easily sailed whether you have a full or shorthanded crew. With its newly expanded sail plan featuring a double spreader rig mast, additional sail area, and anchor-bowsprit, performance and balance has never been better. And as with all Valiant Yachts, that sea kindly motion and balance make for safe and comfortable offshore ride . From its fine bow entry to its classic rounded-tumblehome stern, the Valiant hull design provides the strength and impact resistance that veteran sailors look for in a world class performance cruiser.
