Description

A travel trailer named " Magnuson Trailer" is by a judge's grandstand on a wooden dock for the U-19 Coral Reef hydroplane, believed to be at Lake Chelan. Harry Reeves piloted the U-19 Coral Reef from 1958-60. The hydroplane was known in 1958 as U-19 Miss Rocket, owned by Tacoma's Austin Snell. Snell changed the name to Miss Rocket in 1958 to match his business. The U-19 Coral Reef was one of the first unlimited hydroplanes to run on Lake Coeur d’Alene.
