That's what I thought when I stumbled across this one...........but it is indeed a buntmetal Schwerin 1st pattern S-boot! And, well, I couldn't refuse
Thanks again John and Mike for your help

Thanks guys. The water effect is what initially got me interested in these badges, I think it is much nicer than the 2nd pattern. But I didn't realize how much the boat really pops out at you! 3-dimensional, a true beauty.

Hi Guys,
I am curious, your talking about the die flaw and was curious if this is it...

PS. this is not my badge. I was researching the flaw you mentioned and just wanted to see if I am looking in the right place.

Hi Brian,

So the die flaw was there after all! A nice honest badge indeed.

Andy, yes, the flaw is the very thin raised diagonal line in the area you've circled.
