A small passenger vessel's Official Number must be marked _______________.

A or mounted so that any alteration, removal, or replacement would be obvious
B on some clearly visible interior structural hull part
C in block type Arabic numerals not less than 3 inches high
D All of the above
AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) All of the above. The official number of a small passenger vessel must be marked or mounted in a way that any alteration, removal, or replacement would be obvious (option A), on some clearly visible interior structural hull part (option B), and in block type Arabic numerals not less than 3 inches high (option C). This is a requirement outlined in the U.S. Coast Guard regulations for marking a vessel's official number. The other options are incorrect because they only partially describe the regulatory requirements. The official number must meet all three criteria - visibility, location, and size - to comply with the regulations.
