before someone jumps in to point out that they can be invisible….. 

Skip Nav links can be invisible  (i.e. only “visible” to screen readers)  — but when you do this you deny their use to people with physical disabilities who navigate by keyboard — and have to tab trough all the headers to get to things.   So invisible Skip Nav’s are problematic for that reason.   They are also useful to people with magnifiers since it helps then jump to the core content.   

So - yes but not when done so everyone can use them. 

thanks Bruce for the notes/assessments.
