What is the purpose of a capacity plate on a boat?

Indicates the year the boat was made
Shows the maximum engine power
Indicates the maximum weight capacity and/or the maximum number of people that the boat can carry safely in good weather
Displays the boat's model number

The correct answer is: Indicates the maximum weight capacity and/or the maximum number of people that the boat can carry safely in good weather

A capacity plate on a boat serves to inform passengers and operators of the maximum weight capacity and/or the maximum number of people that the boat can safely carry in good weather conditions. This is important information to know in order to ensure the safety and stability of the boat while out on the water. This plate does not indicate the year the boat was made, the maximum engine power, or the boat's model number, making options A, B, and D incorrect.
