Rather than a floater, have you considered pre-mixing your rums in a batch and mixing your floater into the batch? That way, men you make your mai tai, you are not overwhelming the drink with more than 2oz of rum (which might throw off the balance of other ingredients IMO), but you are still getting the little bit of different flavor that you are trying to get from your floater. I use a similar base to yours, but mix a little Coruba dark into the mix and have been generally pleased with the results.
