Welcome to the home of the largest group of Marlow-Hunter sailboat owners in the world.
We honor our shipmate Robert (Bob) Buchaneur who passed away a few weeks ago and extend our sincere sympathy to his wife of 36 years Pamela (Pam) Buchaneur. Bob was a retired Air Force Colonel and spent his time sailing and more recently playing tennis and pickleball. As HSA-1 members for more than 20 years, his presence will be missed. Bob was 85 years young. HSA-1 will be sending a donation in Bob's memory to the Parkinson's Foundation. Information about services will be forthcoming.
HSA-1 was founded in 1978. We are a group of Hunter sailors over 100 strong, concentrated in the middle Chesapeake Bay, from Solomons in the south to the Magothy River in the north. Boat lengths range from 25 feet to 50 feet. The club has an active year-round racing, cruising, and social activity schedule. Activities provide many opportunities to share information, experiences and maintenance tips as well as socializing with like-minded sailors.
As our membership has grown over the past few years, the places we keep our boats has expanded. One of the club’s goals is to have raft-ups near the places we keep our boats. If there is not yet one near you, come back with a recommendation for a place that is.
2025 Sailing Plans
We had a great time in 2025 and are now planning 2026. Please let the fleet captain know if you have an idea for an activity and anyactivity you would like to help with as raft captain.
