Actually, it's Valdez, with a Z.
Not that it matters for the ship, but we still have a town up here by that name. If you prefer the slang term, locals call it Val-disease

Right you are, "Z". Corrected.

I don't know all that much about the life cycle of ships, but it sounds like the ship formerly known as the Valdez had about as much wear and tear as Newt Gingrich's wedding vows.

Oh, we used to go once a month, every month. Rain, snow, cold....nothing stopped us. The old saying was "put the boats on the water and the sun will shine" and it did 90%+ of the time. I actually preferred winter floating as it was so quiet and peaceful. No one else on the river. All the leaves off the trees allowed you to look into the forest. The animals would be drinking at the river and never notice you slipping by......good times

...and when the wind decided to blow upstream, which seemed to be quite often, you got a good workout in the slow stretches, just digging your way downstream.
