    Nice. Is there a name for a ship that has the Wheelhouse in the front like that? Back? Seems like most around here I see are in the back.

    Simply "wheelhouse forward" to my knowledge. Fishing ships, oil rig supply ships (generally, smaller ships) and the like, I usually see with the house forward. Freighters and especially tankers tend to have it in the rear more so. An exception would be our biggest freighter, a 689' container/roll on ship with the house forward.

    Foggy this morning and we slept in. Yesterday on our walk it was clear, full moon and about 13C/55F. Quite warm and the day was gorgeous. Looked like a summer's day out there for the rest of the day.

    So thankfully it is Friday. This week in the school year is always very busy as we have our funding count today and numbers going to the ministry of students and programs determines our funding for the school year. So accuracy is a must. So many pieces to account for and many people providing the information. Our Principal also holds a Back to School BBQ for the whole school on this last day of September. Especially nice for the Grade 8s who get a little overwhelmed by the first month in a high school.

    Likely air locked or possibly a bad zone valve. Is there a bleeder valve on it? It only takes a little air in the wrong place to cause it. Is the incoming supply line warm?

    I don't recall all the steps the guy did when I helped with my fathers but he needed a new circulating pump, we drained all the pipes of the old water from the basement and started it back up and then from the basement where the furnace is located we removed the air out of the system. My father never had problems after that but he still would have the guy come over yearly for a quick checkup.

    There also was a relief valve that needed replacement because of corrosion every so often.

    Bleeder bleeds water and there is no zone valve. Supply is hot but won't flow through.

    if the supply is hot to the baseboard but the baseboard is still cold, there is a obvious blockage. If you have a gate-style shut off valve at the baseboard, check to see that the stem isn't seized or broken.
