I've been purposely maxing my menaces to see what happens, and I have a couple of questions. 1: In insanity, what do i need to and what would happen if i immersed in the fountain? 2: In death, what does the boatman's opponent stat DO?

Seeking Curios in the Forgotten Quarter usually works pretty well, especially if you deliberately equip Watchful-lowering gear on top of it.

The higher your Boatman's Opponent quality, the harder the Watchful check is to beat the Boatman at Chess, and so the harder it is to leave the slow boat.
Immersing yourself in the fountain isn't very exciting at all. Stormy-Eyed is gained by raising your What The Thunder Said to 18, and all that immersing yourself in the fountain does is decrease Stormy-Eyed by 1CP and Nightmares by 3CP.

Have you maxed out your other menaces yet, if not I have some advice.
Maxing out Scandal sends you to the tomb colonies. This is actually one of the best places in the game, as it lets you easily grind out second chances, favours with the tomb-colonists, and lets you max out hedonist and austere to level 10.
Maxing out Suspicion sends you back to New-Newgate and also raises another stat that goes up each time you enter, there are some interesting storylets that appear here, once you get out.
Maxing out nightmares, but only if you have memories of light, sends you to the mirror marshes. The mirror marshes is best if you have watchful over 100, and let's you easily grind out seeing through the eyes of icarus, and walking the fallen cities.

It's Mirror Marches, not marshes. Marches meaning borderlands (as in the real-world Welsh Marches), because it is located on the edge of the dream-world of Parabola.

In Mrs. Plenty's Carnival there is a House Of Mirrors. While looking into the mirrors is usually a bad bad bad idea, if you want to go to the royal beth there are fewer ways faster then gazing into the dream mirror.

You end up going to the relevant menace areas one after another - I don't remember the order.

Sorry RL means I am not a very active player at the moment. No social actions unless you are prepared to wait and definitely no sparring or other mult-action things.
No Calling Cards or boxed cats please. Will take dupes on the affluent photographers. Other social invitations welcome. Parabolan Kittens usually available, send me an in-game social action saying you want one and I will get one to you as soon as possible.

It's a faster method out, but you likely don't have access to it right now.
Also, what level are your Dreams at right now? You seem to want to run through Heart's Desire as quickly as you can, and so visiting a state of some confusion might be something you regret later on.

I generally go to the mirror marches when mad, so can't remember the answer to 1. The boatman's stat comes in useful for one of the end-game statuses --London's Nerves.

No, many places at zee ignore menaces. But if you return to London, you will be exiled.

Scandal is a tough one at Zee but there are places that can help with menaces. An Iron Republic Safe Conduct is very useful - your menaces will jump all over the place but you can spend the quality you gain during your visit to reduce your menaces. If I remember correctly - Hunter's Keep can help with Nightmares and, possibly, wounds. I think there is something at the end of the Carousel on Mutton Island as well but I can't remember which menaces it helps.
But I think that is all for future reference in your case as you got to Polythreme via your Ambition.
