We are on a mooring ball in Titusville and have been running an anchor alarm, because the lines sometimes fail. We did notice a few gaps in the GPS on Thursday, but, it just made the error go to about 45 or 50 ft and almost immediately straightened out.
Would have probably been ok while in the ICW around here as it’s all canal.
How about Richmond?
For those traveling...
Bring paper map or MapQuest directions?
