I have a saggy canopy on my Norman 18. The previous owner neglected the boat last winter, which resulted in the top of the canopy holding water. This has caused the top of the canopy to sag.
The canopy is otherwise sound. Does anyone have any tips of how to solve this problem cheaply as possible.

Replace any rubbers with new, that might just tighten it up a little.
Failing that, get the sewing machine out and take a tuck.

The cheapest option is to learn to live with it!!

You may be able to adjust the poles to take out a bit of sag, or a bit of webbing between poles to help the water run off to stop it sagging any more.
