With the cold front moving in over the weekend I had a bunch of downtime, which I normally like to fill by making plans and strategizing. I stumbled upon an app called InstaCart which does grocery shopping and delivery for you (making money on product mark up and delivery fees). Since I don’t have a car I’ll probably use this type of service for to do the provisioning for bulk / heavy items before I leave.
Planning Out A Provisioning
There was recently a news article about two women that spent 5 months lost in the Pacific Ocean. While the story turned out to just be two crazy people from Hawai’i (their story is a bunch of drama and self-caused issues and they weren’t really that lost or in danger) they stated that they had provisioned for a year on $5,000. I was curious what it would really look like (money-wise) to provision for a year’s time, and this app gave me the ability to shop the local stores from the warmth of my bed. Below is the list I came up with while shopping (totals at the bottom) Publix (local grocery chain), ABC Liquors, and Costco. This doesn’t count fresh fruits, vegetables, and meats which have limited shelf life and would be purchased as you moved about. This is definitely not “camping” (lots of comfort food and variety) and has some items I don’t particularly care for but take into account having guests/company (especially in the Alcohol categories). I broke the items down into bolded categories for ease of use.
One of the big benefits of being able to upgrade from the smaller Cabot 36 to the Morgan OutIsland 41 is the amount of storage. Both dry storage and the fuel and water capacities. Once I install the watermaker I see no reason why I can’t stay dock-free for 6 months at a time while traveling.

Using This To Actually Provision
As I have a lot of time before I can leave I’ll buy out this list over time, making it part of my normal monthly food budget. I’ve put this up into my Google Drive so I can access it while shopping. I have two additional columns to show actual price spent, as I’ll try to buy stuff on special, and a NOTES column. I’ll also take this and make a second copy to use an inventory which will autopopulate a shopping list of needed items to make it easy to stay full.
Looks good, I’d look into stuff with a long shelf life and smaller packaging such as dehydrated product. Little stuff ie bouillon comes in small cubes, coffee creamer can be in flavoed and powdered. Just my thoughts on taking shelf life off the table. Maybe using honey as a primary sweetener as it never spoils and would store well. And multi purpose products like baking soda, it’s a cleaner, tooth paste etc…
Yea, I find a lot of products on Amazon that are in bulk but smaller packaged items, so like a 12 pack of 3 oz packages of baking soda. Also I’m buying a 110v/12v vacuum packaging sealer. With things like flour and rice you package them with food grade silica packets (to cut humidity). And as it’s 12v I can run it off the batteries for any fish I catch while under way.
