A not less than three hand fire pumps
B a suitable, detachable pump usable for firefighting purposes
C an emergency hand fire and bilge pump
D at least three 2-1/2 gallon fire buckets
AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) at least three 2-1/2 gallon fire buckets. According to the small passenger vessel regulations, all vessels not required to have a power-driven fire pump must carry at least three 2-1/2 gallon fire buckets. This requirement ensures that these vessels have a basic means of firefighting, even if they do not have a dedicated fire pump. The other options, such as hand fire pumps or a detachable pump, are not the correct requirements for vessels not required to have a power-driven fire pump.
