Does anyone know about a Mistral Concept ? It looks identical to my One Design But is pasty yellow ugly . It's not the newer yellow version of my pink one . It kinda looks special . Is it different construction , I can't find any info on it .
I agree it looks like the shape of a one design. I'm guessing late '90's.
Maybe it's lighter. Does it have a powerbox and a good gasket?
Does it come with Mistral sails?
yeah i saw that too , pretty sure its a one-design.
I had a plain white imco that was an early powerbox model and I think came just before they did the board with the Atlanta '96 graphic , I reckon that is the same board and likely has a one design sticker on the other rail not shown.
the ugly yellow is most likely a backyard sugar re-grip .
not sure about the Concept label that some Mistrals had mid 1990's , I think it refers to their M-tech construction that Mistral say is a sandwich construction with ASA skin.
there's a Screamer with the Concept label here ;

I suspect as does fJdoug that the yellowing is due to the deck grip being upgraded with an epoxy resin which yellows with age. The Atlanta board was 94-95-96: see below:

The Atlanta board was US box.
That's a 1998 one design. 1997 and 1998 both looked the same, but the 1997 had a **** mast track with no numbers on it.
There are a few different colours/patterns on the IMCOs. Mine is purle/blue/white (mid 90s). I have seen a mainly yellow like this on a few from that era.

Sorry , they should be pictures of this strange looking board I was asking about . Only there is a problem , I'm an idiot and it didn't work 
Same shape as OD but heavyer construction and not class legal in the time (lower price)

No problem. Don't be so hard on yourself. Are you getting the board ?

Naaa , I've got a perfect OD . I could have been interested if it was a special lighter version . I thought it might have been one without the plastic wrap by the look of the color . Much easier to repair and fit a powerbox .
