It cannot also be B because 'fishing' could
also mean trolling or fishing with poles. Too
broad a statement.

If it said 'fishing with nets or trawls' then it
would be correct.

Since the term can and is used broadly, the point of the answer was that it
"could" be a fishing vessel.

Wrong. A fishing vessel could be sitting at a dock.

It would have to be a vessel fishing. ;-)

No, fishing is a class of vessel unto itself, it is not RAM

Not totally correct. (read rule 3 d.)
A fishing vessel (or to be totally correct a vessel engaged in fishing with
nets, lines, or trawls which RESTRICT maneuverability) is like a minesweeper.
It does not show the normal lights for a vessel restricted in it's ability to
maneuver, but instead, it's own special lights which not only tell you of it's
status as restricted in it's ability to maneuver, but also, for what specific
reason it is restricted.
A "fishing vessel" is in the RAM group, but lit differently.
