C, The maximum number of persons you may safely carry on your boat is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A capacity plate is used to indicate the maximum weight or the maximum number or people that can be carried safely by the boat. The operator must not exceed this weight or capacity; it is also necessary to take in consideration that combined weight refers to the mixed weight of passengers, motors, and gear, if it is the case.
