What it does
- VoyageDates, crew, and the charter industry’s own provisioning patterns: full provisioning (every meal aboard) or split (breakfasts and lunches aboard, most dinners ashore — the way charter weeks actually run). Say who drinks what — some want beer, some wine, some neither — which food allergies are aboard, and whether the ship’s tanks are drinking water or only showers and dishes. Voyages save forever; last year’s charter duplicates into next year’s starting point.
- CalendarEvery day carries breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks, and each meal says whether it’s eaten at anchor or underway. Tap a meal to plan it: choose from the galley, take a suggestion, send dinner ashore with a note, or trim a travel day. Suggestions are honest arithmetic, not a server: fresh meals land early in the voyage, cans and dry goods late, and a meal underway leans to one pot a cook can manage in a seaway. A meal that won’t keep to its day, or that contains a crew allergy, is flagged — with who can’t eat it and an alternative, never struck from the menu.
- GalleyA library of more than forty meals, each carrying per-person quantities, stowage, how long its freshest ingredient keeps, and — for every meal that is more than assembly — the cooking: a few lines for a two-burner galley, one pot where it can be, what to prep at the dock, what needs calm. Your own meals join it permanently with the same math. What’s already aboard lives here too — the spice rack, the cans in the bilge — and the beverage rates, per drinker per day, with spirits by a cruiser’s rule of thumb.
- ListThe whole voyage becomes one grocery list: every meal’s ingredients times the crew aboard that day, merged across meals, minus what’s already aboard, rounded up to real packs (you can’t buy 13 eggs, so it buys 18). Sorted by aisle, with the invisible half of provisioning appended — cooking oil, paper towels, the propane check. Adjust any quantity, strike a line, add what the meals never knew about; divide the list among several shoppers, each taking a run of neighboring aisles, and send each their share; tap items into the cart as you shop; print the list and the calendar — with the cooking for every meal planned — as PDFs for the crew, or export them as spreadsheets.
- Entirely offlineNo account, no server of ours, no signal needed. Nothing you enter ever leaves your device unless you print, export or send it yourself, through the share sheet — or switch on iCloud sync, which keeps your voyages the same on your iPhone and iPad through your own iCloud, readable by no one but you.
Keeping windows and water rates are estimates from cruising practice, labeled as estimates. An aid to the galley, not a substitute for the skipper’s judgment.
On the App Store
Rainbow’s End Provisioning is on the App Store for iPhone and iPad — formerly Rainbow’s End Galley, the same app under a name that says what it does. It works fully offline — no account, no server of ours; nothing leaves your device unless you print or export it yourself.
