In this condition I actually hope that it is fake.

Good Lord ... someone didnt like Nazi Eagle swastika symbols did they?

I guess u could call it a "C" Boat Badge now

Not a fake, look at the gilt remaining on the reverse. You probably can match it to a zinc badge by searching the examples on the forum.

However, what difference does it make?

Oh dear. To bad someone denazified this original badge in that way.
