B retained at the owner's principal place of business
C posted on board under glass, if practical
D posted on the dock where passengers are embarked
AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) posted on board under glass, if practical. The small passenger vessel regulations require that the Certificate of Inspection issued to a vessel carrying more than six passengers must be posted on board the vessel under glass, if practical. This ensures that the certificate is readily available for inspection by the authorities and passengers. The other options are incorrect because: A) the certificate does not need to be kept on file by the Collector of Customs, B) it does not need to be retained at the owner's principal place of business, and D) it does not need to be posted on the dock where passengers are embarked.
