Morocco 2020

Yes it’s the internal water pump for fresh water. Going under the seats etc.. to find it in the morning.
 
I note you have an Autocruise. Will have a look see what make pumps they used.

Now you ask for some info but how about some info.................what type, any photos and what seems to be the problem.
I am sure in many instances and with the right information there are people who can advise on self help temporary repairs
 
You will always find a man who knows a man and will sort you out. They may repair it or find a pump that will do a similar job.

Hi all. Anyone know where we can get a new water pump for the motorhome from in Morocco? Ours has decided to die! Any info would be helpful. Thanks


Have you tried tapping it with something weighty, I’ve had one stick on me ? just a thought
 
How much is the ferry with the discount code please TerryL ?

Last year was €180, but Carlos was not to do it for €180 this year ?
 
All, please keep an eye out for a lost Funster wandering about with no data left on his MiFi. Soft and cuddly, not to bright and answers to the name of Scrumptious Nuts !

We were planning to go on Wednesday so will be delighted to meet up on Tuesday
PM sent
 
Carlos office very efficient in and out in minutes on Wednesday, no triplicate form, girls said it’s all automatic now, not strictly true more to follow, shopping done, early night leave for port early Thursday it takes about 20 mins to get to the port, allow 40 which is loads, take signs for E5/N357 Puerto, left at Junction 108C (it’s on your ticket wallet if you use Carlos) When on Port follow CONTROL AUTOS TANGER it’s pretty hard to go wrong, you will go past 1st checkpoint and be directed to a lane and just wait there (don’t do what I did and leave your air con on to clear the windscreen with the engine off, have a bad 10 mins removing floor drivers side to get to battery, emptying boot to get to jump leads and then jump starting moho off leisure batteries, all accomplished without losing my place I might add:giggle:) So the procedure once at the Port is An official will come and get your passports and ticket received from Carlos office, and will return with your passports, boarding passes and RETURN ticket, keep it safe. You will then go past another passport control officer and then into queue for boarding, another wait and then you will be boarded. Once onboard make your way to one of the upper decks where the passport control office is

Then relax and get some lunch and duty free (Torres Brandy 6.5 euros) other makes are available. We left at 12 midday the boat slowed up approaching Tanger Med and we seemed to wait for ages to disembark, finally driving off the boat at 2.30pm to Customs, who then sent us (and lots of others) back to go through scanner, it’s a cock up as you have to drive out passed the customs booth to go back (the wrong way) through the scanner. That took over an hour as the scanner packed up for 45 mins or so, back to the customs booths where nothing happened for another hour cos they were apparently all having a tea break, at least we didn’t have to empty our vehicle like some poor souls, we then got a credit card sized temporary admission card, you can go now! 2 1/2 hours to clear customs, it was an absolute joke, utter mayhem with motor homes and cars everywhere, I preferred the simple shakedown for a couple of beers like last time. Immediately upon leaving the customs booths on left (150m) are where you can change money, I got 12.3 Dirhams to the pound changing uk cash, finally got to Asilah in torrential rain about 6.30pm.

At 9pm A guy called Mustapha (aren’t they all) knocked on the van telling me Maroc Telecom is shut on a Friday or this Friday as it’s a religious holiday, I get you SIM card for Mifi, phone whatever, 25 gig over 3 month, 300 Dh, well you know what, I gave him my MIFI he came back saying everything is working, I had to give him the 300 Dh, I did, he came back MIFI worked straight away, welcome message saying I’ve got 5 x 5 gb so let’s see eh, I can renew as well, gotta trust people sometime, tiring day but will stay on guardian site tomorrow cos I can’t be arsed moving. What a palaver, have fun guys and girls(y)

Thanks for doing that work Terry.We have been held up by the storm and won't be crossing until first week in February......Green Card doesn't start until then anyway.
So we'll probably be a week or so behind you lot.

Thanks also for the detailed instructions dabhand. Did you travel with Trasmed. A friend went with them last week and the 8.30 boat was about 3 hrs late. Perhaps I'll try Balearics this year.

Also how was the scanner going in .I'm a bit worried it will show up the bottles of booze, which might be confiscated or an excuse for a backhander.
 
BBC news this morning, saying some 14 citizens killed in Spain as a result of the weather ????
 
Sounds like back to chaos again inbound. Looks like I got a couple of newbies with me, should be fun!

I think customs gave up in the end and waved motorhomes through

We crossed with AML (Africa Morocco Line I think) no problems just a bit slow disembarking, I’m sure the scanner shows up everything I have enough booze to stock Morrison’s for a day, it’s drugs they are after, they don’t give a sh*t about booze and the backhander is a gift of a tin or two of beer not required this time don’t worry about it, now the sex aids, that’s a different matter as the Rabbit shows up as a pistol, they don’t like getting shot with a dildo you know!:LOL:

Hi Terry, Just a quickie to let you know I had a good take up on the guide I produced for first time Morocco Funster visitor's. Twenty plus requests and no negative feedback. The one thing I have learned from doing this is....... I will never attempt to write a Blog, Book or do a Vlogg. Did you get a good uptake with your entry procedures ? Looks like it might have to be updated again after reading Simon's account. I bet it changes again before the month is out. Sounds as if they are all over the place.
 
Hi Phil - TBH I've never checked, it's been there for a while now anyway. On the whole judging from reports so far it's still as accurate but I'm waiting until we go through next week before I make any changes.
So far got three other vans joining us crossing over.
