Mike Ingham of Rochester Yacht Club in New York won the only race on day one of the J/24 US National Championship. Taking place at Wayzata Yacht Club in Minnesota, Ingham’s USA 5443 took the early lead in the regatta, which runs through Sunday. The teams had their patience tested as they waited majority of the day for enough breeze to launch the event. Once they got going, winds were 4-6 knots. Locals Rolf Turnquist on Oz and Randy Gould on VooDoo rounded out the top three.
