Black and white marketing photo of a Chrysler Sport Valiant utility boat taken from its port side. Two men fish from the boat with fishing rods, while a woman seated near the bow dips a landing net into the water. A reed bed is in the background. A caption previously taped to the verso read:
For Use On or After Wednesday, August 21, 1968:
Cathedral-Hull Utility -- This is the Sport Valiant, a versatile 14-foot utility featuring Chrysler's sleek new cathedral hull design. The Sport Valiant has a side steering console in the center of the boat, and its wide-open cockpit offers special appeal to the fisherman. The new tri-hull design gives the boat a soft, smooth, stable ride. The Sport Valiant has a 67-beam and an approximate weight of 455 pounds (without motor).

"Who cares about fishing when she's along?" was handwritten in red grease pencil on the verso of the caption sheet.
