6 / 28 - score 52%
The Valiant 47 is a 47.0ft cutter designed by Robert Perry and built in fiberglass by Uniflite Inc. (USA) between 1981 and 1992.

The Valiant 47 is a moderate weight sailboat which is a reasonably good performer. It is stable / stiff and has an excellent righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a bluewater cruising boat. The fuel capacity is good. There is a good water supply range.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top quarter. It seems difficult to do much better. It is one of the best possible tradeoff for this request.
