From Original Brochure...
   The Valiant Pilothouse 40 has all the fine points of the Valiant 40, with the addition of a pilothouse. Traditional in appearance but modern in design, she's swift, comfortable and forgiving. A seagoing cruising vessel that goes to windward, sails fast, and provides inside steering which protects you and your crew from the elements. The accommodations rival those of much larger yachts, incorporating two staterooms, large head with tub/shower, "U" shaped galley, large salon with "L" shaped settee and lounge chairs with game table, an inside helm, and generous storage with space for a washer/dryer and trash compactor.
    The Pilothouse 40 steers nicely off the wind and has just enough weatherhelm when close hauled to give her a very solid "feel." Stability is derived from her form, rather than from an excessively high ballast/displacement figure, giving her a smooth comfortable ride.
