Is there a general purpose yachting cap badge made of "bullion", as there is for the Merchant and Royal Navies? It seems you can still get a "yachting" style peaked cap, but no mention of a badge. Did the RYA ever do one, or am I still stuck irredemably in 1911?

Look at this great old merchant seaman's cap. Probably from the time of World War I to 1930. It bears the traditional crossed anchors of the ship's boatswain, the senior able-bodied seaman in the crew. Made of blue wool, it has a tarred visor, and a hat badge of old bullion embroidery. Rare to find this insignia, too
