The results history of this boat is wrong. Look link FRA-34!

Cybèle III is F-34 - 05.01.2009 by Matti Muoniovaara

Cybèle third did not keep the number F-38. It used the number F-34. This boat, Cybèle II F-38, is not the 1969 World champion. It happened almost 40 years ago and Jean-Marie might remember wrong. The photos at FRA-034 files and note tells the story and the rest is history. If one compares the photo F-34 in Sandhamn and photos at FRA-038, the boats are completely different.

Translation of the note posted by Louis Pillon on 03.10.2007. - 28.06.2008 by Sebastien Schmidt

Warning, do not make confusions : J-M Le Guillou has been owner of Cybèle II (a Britton Chance Jr design with hull chines) for only ten days, because the boat was impossible to helm downwind. This boat has been straightaway bought by the FFYV (Federation Française de Y? V?), and Cybèle III has kept the sail number F-38. This is this last boat who became world champion in 1969.

Cybèle - 03.10.2007 by Louis Pillon

Attention aux confusions : J-M Le Guillou n'a été que 10 jours propriétaire de Cybèle II, un Britton Chance Jr à bouchains, car le bateau était intenable au portant. Ce bateau a été aussitôt racheté par la FFYV et Cybèle III a gardé le N° F 38. C'est ce dernier bateau qui a été champion du monde en 1969.

World champion 1969 in Sandhamm with J.M. Le Guillou.

Origin - 19.09.2007 by Sebastien Schmidt

See FRA-34 Cybèle I. It seems that J.M. Le Guillou has ordered two boats to Hermann Egger almost at the same time, that makes confusion in the stories of these boats. To compare the rating certificate would help.
