Alternative
I've tried on boaters several times, and even in my size, they didn't fit the shape of my head. They also felt so solidly constructed it didn't seem they would ever conform. That and the fact that they make me look like an idiot is why I've never bought one, although I think they're nice looking hats.
This is an alternative I found, somewhat pricey, granted, but I think it's even nicer than a boater. Doesn't come big enough for me, but regular-noggin people might like it.
