The correct answer is C. Improperly loading the boat.
Improper loading can lead to instability and an increased risk of capsizing, especially when a boat is overloaded or unevenly balanced. This can be particularly dangerous for hunters and anglers who may be in situations where quick movements or sudden changes in weight distribution occur. Proper loading is essential for maintaining safety on the water.
