What does a buoy with crossed diamonds signify?

  1. Marine life conservation area

  2. Areas off-limits to all vessels

  3. Underwater cables

  4. Fishing zone

The correct answer is: Areas off-limits to all vessels

A buoy with crossed diamonds signifies areas that are off-limits to all vessels. This symbol is typically used to indicate a danger zone or an area where boating or other maritime activities are prohibited. Marine life conservation areas and fishing zones may also be marked with buoys, but they would typically have different symbols or markings on them. Underwater cables are usually marked with specialized buoys to indicate their location, but these buoys would not have the crossed diamonds symbol. Therefore, the correct answer is B as it is the only option that specifically matches the described symbol.
