    Saggy Canopy

    Even when I refit my canopy using the procedures I read about on this site, it always sags a bit about 4/5ths of the way toward the back. About 300ml of rain pools up just underneath the outer cargo rack rails on the left and right sides.

    Any suggestions for an alternative fix?

    New or old canopy? If it is the old one it may be past it's use by and maybe worth considering a new one.

    Maybe re drill the back cam rack holes through the PVC patch so that it is pulled further back over the rear hoop....

    Yep! It's an old one but not worth replacing.

    Great idea Landrover Scott, that could be a top plan.

    Have a look at your rear hoop.
    Many haven't had their retaining bolts tightened and lean forward. Some have been bent by reversing into low hanging stuff. Same result.
    If it is bent forward, remove and turn it around. Should now be nice and tight!
    Cheers, BDave.
