I offer you this -- a quote from one of Patrick O'Brian's
Aubrey/Maturin novels (The Thirteen Gun Salute p27 of the pb):

[T]he land's main function [is] to provide marine stores --
it [is] not a place for real existence. [Patrick O'Brian]

Thus, a simple "Marine Store", while not particularly funny,
might be just what you are looking for.

BTW, welcome back.

Good Grief!

It's a reunion week!

Hiya Pete ... long time no see.
