Astral navigation is probably accurate enough
- K0balt 16d agoDead reckoning with a minute or two to get a gps fix with the jammer off once a day.
- Peanuts99 16d agoWhat's to stop someone spoofing a GPS signal during that fix?
- K0balt 16d agoNothing, and if it were subtle enough it could be effective at making it drift around. Lots of ways to get a rough fix though, and you don’t need very good absolute accuracy offshore, using a compass and log to DR your way around. Even better if you have a wind vane and anemometer. The majority of your drift will be wind driven.
