The rank is captain (of the ship), not to be confused with army or navy captains. This rank is the highest for onboard crew, but I've understood that above this within the Soviet civil shipping (MORFLOT) administration, as in the Aeroflot, even more senior officials held ranks above that were indicated by an even thicker bottom stripe, ranking like admirals and generals.

Anyway, the cap should look like or closely resemble the one in the attached file.

The badge is embroidered and the visor leaves indicating ship captain are navy type. Junior and medium level officers did not have these leaves.

I think I can help you with the cap, or at least parts of it, if needed. Send a PM if so.
