If you built a boat from SiC attached to enormous heat sinks radiating into empty space, it would float for longer.
But air-conditioning expense makes it cost-prohibitive.
Magma is pretty dense (it's molten rocks, after all), so many things float on magma.
Very interesting discussion on the subject :

Do houses in Iceland really do that?
