Dorworth writing about a friend too long dead, 2-wheels vs 18, and a very important question...
Voile et Voiliers has a really good article about what's going on with the Russians jamming and spoofing of GPS. It's well worth reading and Voile et Voiliers now has your choice of language so non-French readers can dial in their language of choice. However, the translations are fairly crude which results in a lot of jumbled sentence structure but, with a little work, you can get it to make sense.
Anyway, back to GPS and the fact that there are many possible scenarios these days where your GPS might not work when you need it to. Having a back up GPS system does not do you any good if someone turns off GPS access or the GPS data stream becomes corrupted.
I know I've become tiresome on the subject but good navigation practices and a back up system in place is just prudent seamanship.
