Sauvie Island UFO is the name given to the derelict hull of an experimental concrete ship designed and built in the 1970s in Oregon. The ship, a sailboat, ran aground while on the Columbia River and was abandoned on Sauvie Island. The concrete hull is now covered in graffiti and has become something of a local attraction.[1][2][3] Sauvie Island UFO was designed by Richard Ensign.
