Valiant's years of success have caused Valiant to refine an unprecedented tradition (rather than resting on its laurels) in the development of the NEW VALIANT 37 ESPRIT.     This beautiful yacht is the culmination of the vast knowledge that can only be gained by experience. The new Valiant 37 embodies all that has made Valiant the "ultimate" in sailing yachts. It is a contemporary statement of the Valiant tradition.    The 37's combination of speed and luxury has caught the attention of sailors who have ignored cruising yachts because of their lack of performance. The 37 is oriented more toward high performance and was designed to fill the gap between the racing yacht and the "performance cruiser."     The philosophy is simple. The 37 combines current technology for both comfort and speed. This results in a deck layout that would do justice to a Gran Prix racing yacht and an interior that is consistent with the Valiant standard of quality and luxury. The Valiant 37 is truly the refinement of a revolution.
