A 1964 Wyche and Coppock Proctor V on the East Coast?
Michael Storey started a thread over at the Woodenboat Forum about an unknown International 14 he found in a garage near Annapolis. Given his description, it sounds tantalizing similar to a Wyche and Coppock Proctor V, built in lapstrake, one of a small batch built by that famous English dinghy builder. There was one known Wyche and Coppock Proctor V that made it to the U.S., that one being US 782 that was originally owned by Jim Wachter in Seattle Washington. This 14 was built in 1964. So far no pictures and I haven't been able to contact Michael but it looks to be a very intriguing find.

Wyche and Coppock did make some 14s to Ian Proctor designs - K859 being one of them.They did build a number of lapstrake (clinker) boats in the 1940s and 50s to their own design.
