Individual recall (which wasn't!)

If they could not identify the boat then surely it should have been a general recall?

	A general isn't compulsory: the rules say "may" not must. There are circumstances where an RC may feel its better to just throw up an individual recall and risk boat(s) getting away with being OCS rather than recall the whole fleet... Consider, for example, if you have two boats out of a hundred three inches over the line and the start is generally fair is it really desirable to start all over again?
