Design

Fountainhead's exterior was designed by De Voogt Naval Architects and her interior by Sinot Exclusive Yacht Design. The hull is built of steel and the superstructure is made of aluminium, with teak laid decks. The yacht is classed by Lloyd's Register and flagged in the Cayman Islands.[8]

Performance

Her two propellers are powered by two 4300kW MTU 20V4000 M93L diesel engines.

The Fountainhead is owned by tone deaf billionaire, Edward Lampert, who drove Sears into the ground while reaping billions of dollars. The Fountainhead is also the title of a famous Ayn Rand novel, which purports selfish individualism is a better moral construct and the idea of coming together for the greater good of a nation is for losers. The boat easily could also carry the moniker "All About Me"

gollark: It protects you against the case where someone can somehow *read* your network traffic but not *alter* it, maybe. But that's not really worth lots of (rather horrible) code, probable insecurity, and extra complexity.
gollark: Yes, I'm aware, but if your TEA thing is exploitable somehow, then someone can probably use that to log in, since you authenticate that way.
gollark: Huh, I did *not* know that `>>>` was a JS operator which existed.
gollark: I'm not sure if your "iterate through all the keys and try decryption" thing is broken somehow, I'm not really a cryptographer.
