Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

This is a wordplay riddle. The phrase 'not a single person' uses 'single' to mean 'unmarried'. Since everyone on the boat was married, there was no single (unmarried) person on board. The answer is a play on words, not a literal statement. Options A and B suggest you have vision problems, and D is incorrect because there were people (just no unmarried ones).
