The J/70 Corinthian US National Championship began Friday hosted by Corinthian Yacht Club of Cape May in New Jersey with 24 boats competing. Teams enjoyed winds from 8-12 knots on an ocean course, allowing three races.

Cate Muller-Terhune's Casting Couch with Jake Doyle, Mike Komar and John Loe book-ended two bullets plus a fourth for 6 points to take the early advantage. Edward Gary's Ayacucho notched scores in the top three for second place at 8 points. Jim Golden's Derecho is another two points back in third.
