  2. Ignore changes in wind direction and temperature

  3. Keep an eye on the sky and pay attention to changes in conditions

  4. Watch the clouds without using any instruments

The correct answer is: Keep an eye on the sky and pay attention to changes in conditions

When monitoring weather conditions while boating, it is important to keep an eye on the sky and pay attention to changes in conditions. Relying solely on the boat's weather instruments (A) may not provide the most accurate or up-to-date information. Ignoring changes in wind direction and temperature (B) can be dangerous, as these are key indicators of weather changes. Watching the clouds without using any instruments (D) may not provide enough information to make informed decisions about boating safety.
