AI Explanation
The correct answer is C. While engaged in fishing on a 30-meter fishing vessel in both international and inland waters, you must show the shape depicted in illustration D016RR, which is a cone shape. This is because the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREGS) and the Inland Navigation Rules require fishing vessels to display a cone shape pointed downwards while engaged in fishing, to indicate their activity and status to other vessels in the area. The other shapes shown in the illustration do not apply to fishing vessels specifically.
