Hi Craig,
They are very handy hats, I have one but didn't know the name of them. I use mine mostly for cycling my recumbent trike. Mainly for the peak which is wider than a baseball hat. The frill helps with cooling as well.
Which reminds me that I have to replace the elastic bit, the only thing keeping it on my head is the cycle helmet. :D
At least it doesn't sink fast when it gets blown off when kayaking.
