[item=128255] drops from [npc=90519] rare: 44.6, 37.6 at the Ironhold Harbor. You have to kill [npc=90522] in the building to spawn [npc=90519].
Gives a Equipment Blueprint: Ice Cutter quest which unlocks [item=127880]. Quest video https://youtu.be/Osz7FzgBCQs
Part of Naval Mechanics achievement.
[npc=90519] drops Equipment Blueprint: Ice Cutter which unlocks [garrisonability=265]. This trait counters the naval threat [threat=77].
The equipment [garrisonability=265] can be acquired 3 ways:
- Automatically, as the native trait of a new or upgraded rare or epic ship,
- Looted, from a mission that has a ship with the [garrisonability=287] / [garrisonability=290] buff, or
- Purchased, from [npc=93812] / [npc=94801] after it has been unlocked by learning the blueprint.
Additional traits: There are 7 Tanaan Jungle bosses who are guaranteed to drop specific Equipment Blueprints needed for the achievement Naval Mechanics.
Macro code for Tomtom users:

Additionally:All rare creatures and NPCs in Tanaan now have a chance to drop a number of equipment blueprints for ships.
Source: Patch 6.2 Hotfixes: July 27Protip 1: I use Macro Toolkit to avoid having to split macros into smaller parts. There are other addons that also allow this.
Protip 2: Want an easy way to reset your Tomtom arrow to the nearest boss on the list? Just type
/cwayand voila! *Note: An 8th boss, [npc=90284], (second boss in [zone=7545]) drops [item=128256] which counters [threat=80]. The blueprint drops on all levels of raid difficulty.
Note 2: What about the rest of them? Only 3 other blueprints are available in 6.2.0. They come from various sources. Equipment Blueprint: Blast Furnace ([garrisonability=269] for [threat=81]), is a quest item. [item=128264] ([garrisonability=275]) and [item=128265] ([garrisonability=305]) are vendor rep items.
The blueprints for [garrisonability=278], [garrisonability=277], [garrisonability=279], [garrisonability=281], & [garrisonability=280] are not obtainable and are no longer required for the achievement.
*Source: Patch 6.2 Hotfixes: July 27 - July 29However, each of these 5 pieces of equipment has a chance to be provided automatically when upgrading or building new ships.

Description
This appears to be a blueprint for some sort of naval equipment. We should take it back to our Shipyard and see if someone can decipher it.
