We get out in Salé and stroll through the beautiful old medina. We are fascinated, not tourists, pure Moroccan life. When we arrive at the marina Bouregreg we will receive a warm welcome in the office. We are encouraged that on Saturday the conditions for entrance to the River Qued Bouregreg, should be good. The marina is well protected marina Flussaufwärts.Die something here was opened just over a year before new, super-built one is really sure. The prices are very cheap, and Trans Ocean members get another 20% discount. (11-13m approx 238.00 CHF per month for off-season from September to June, see also www.bouregregmarina.com).

The ships we meet Marcel and Christa, a Swiss couple, who already is almost 3 months here in Salé. The two rave about the good Marina, the dear people here, the "social live" the yachties and the great craftsmen who produce almost everything one at a good price. Also working on this vessel is to be good.

Yes, now just have to flip everything that we arrive here on Saturday!

We will visit the Kasbah of Rabat, on the other side of the river (for 0.20 CHF will be paddled from one side to the other). From there we see how the waves break at the entrance. And make the entrance dangerous.
