I talked to a guy from one of the sailing centers (can't recall which one) and I found out the make of the boat... it's a Chinook 34. Here's another a blog that mentions it. You can read my previous post on this stranded Milwaukee sailboat for more information.

On Friday, some people came in wetsuits and removed The Falcon's sail and boom.

Here's sunrise pics from Friday, Saturday and Sunday (yep, no real sunrise on Sunday 12-2):
