Default RCASC landing craft helmsman patch

Hi, has anyone ever seen the un-official qualification patch, variously known as "landing craft helmsman", DUKW, or "skipper of small vessel"? It's circular yellow with a gold ship's wheel, and worn on the right forearm, specifically by RCASC personnel. Better yet does anyone have one they'd part with?

That's the first time I have heard of that patch, if anyone can provide a pic that would be great.
