Blitz Profile Page
Here's a profile page for Blitz, which includes the following picture
And, according to this report, it also appears that Blitz won its class (IRC G) in the 2005 Bacardi Bayview Mackinac Race
From SailorRose (SailingAnarchy.com):
"Blitz update for 2008 season: 1st DRYA Spring Series and 1st IRC-D for PH to Mac! We would have won the Mills if we had raced IRC (damn PHRF!). "

Blitz (Sail #31377)
Vagary was among the most successful. I know that I am missing a bunch.
Vagary was a bare hull Serendipity 43 bought from New Orleans and finished off by the original owner. It is now Blitz on Lake St Clair/Huron.
THE OLD VAGARY WITH THAT FAMOUS WHALE TAIL LOG ON THE BOW HAS BEEN FULLY REDONE IN DETROIT AND IS BLITZ, AND A GOOD OLD WAR HORSE. THE STICK WAS TAKEN OUT AND A 7FT RED WHEEL ATTACHED, AND IS BEING WELL SAILED BY A BUNCH OF "OLD" GROSSE ILE (LAKE ERIE) GUYS.AS A MATTER OF FACT THEY ARE TRYING TO FIND OUT SOME OF THE PHRF RATINGS OF SOME OF THE OTHER SERENDIPITY 43 AROUND THE COUNTRY. NEW OWNERS ARE BEING KILLED FOR THE OLD VAGARY RATING. DICK OWNED VAGARY FOR 20 YEARS, AND PUT THE CREW AND SAILS ON THE BOAT.
Blitz finished second in DRYA for the season [2007]. I also believe they won their PH to Mac class in 2005
Blitz is owned by someone named "Soutar", per this 2007 DRYA race report
Blitz runs a set of Doyle sails
5/30: It appears that Blitz is on the US Sailing ORR list (as is MoJoe). After a little more research, it appears that the "Peterson 43" designation simply means that it was a bare hull, whereas "Serendipity 43" means that the hull was fleshed out with a crusing interior. Technically, they are the same type of boat.
