Join Steve this week as he boards the ferry from Algeceris to Tangier Med in Morocco. Following some confusion at the port The Buzz is put through a vehicle scanning truck and he gets a thorough inspection at customs, and they let him in, despite him not having his driving licence.
He then spends the night at a service station before continuing south towards the Sahara, trying out a couple of public rapid chargers along the way. He stops for lunch at a town along the way before arriving at his stop for the night and to see if he can actually charge The Buzz at a campsite.

You look like the Moroccan Football federation boss Fouzi Lakjaa. He's quite popular.

I've become addicted to your videos just to hear you speak with your accent; it's so nice to hear! 🤗

You have a pleasant, outgoing, not pushy type of personality for travelling alone. I am too shy and wouldn’t manage by myself and so it is so interesting watching you manage so well by yourself. I enjoy all your travels with or without your family.

😊I liked the way you spoke, and also how you talked about the country and that you had a great time there.

Adding a comment for the algorithm, and to say you’re doing it right. Buy from the local places to eat, even the local market and street food, it’s the best way to experience what the locals would do.

Hi Steve, just got back from a motorcycle trip to Morocco. Second visit, just like you I found the people so friendly and welcoming, no jealousy shown towards the rich Europeans, despite many of them having very little money. Love the buzz, it looks amazing. I just bought an SC Sportshomes Mercedes Sprinter, maybe will visit again in it next year.
One word of warning, be careful with the food, I ended up with food poisoning and it wasn’t very pleasant riding back to Portstewart with a dodgy tummy. It was my own fault, had a chicken roll on the boat back to Algecerais, nightmare. Really enjoying your adventure, can’t wait for the next video. 🇲🇦🇲🇦

20:39 one possible reason you could not activate the terminal is you kept pressing the button for “Annuler” which is French for cancel. Is the same root word as the English Annul. Also a tip when you’re trying to figure our a terminal do not leave the CCS handle plugged into the vehicle. Often times the charger or the vehicle will time out communication if plugged in for too long without successful charging and then once you figure out the charging, you will encounter a unexplained error, which most of the time is a simple communication timeout

Nice compact setup which I would probably use for super commuting. One comment about the starlink, it would probably take less battery if you ran it off USB-C instead of 240 volt then you have less inverter losses.
