Correct Answer: Option D — must be posted under transparent material in a conspicuous place

Per 46 CFR § 2.01-5, the Certificate of Inspection must be framed under glass or other transparent material and posted in a conspicuous place on board. This ensures that the vessel's operating conditions, manning, and safety limitations are readily accessible to the crew and inspecting authorities at all times.
