Well, that's actually a Hindu symbol (Swastika rangoli) that is most commonly used as a charm to bring good fortune. The launching of a ship would fall into that usage.

It has no relationship with National Socialism other than that the Nazis 'borrowed' it when they created their 'historical' Aryan racial purity b.s.

Although fiction, this Davinci Code movie clip has a great factual sequence about translation of symbolism https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZFt3xJ6DvVE

Unfortunately my wife's favorite Norse symbol, Valnut, has been adoped by some Neo Nazi groups as well
