Default Canvas Cover / Camper Top Frame Bent? (2900 SE)

"Camel hump'' in the canvas top probably means we trailered the boat to fast (it was raining, we should have taken it down). Hopefully that can be straightened out again. Has anyone had this issue before and do you think the frame / pole structure can be re-bent, or re-shaped back to make the top 'true' again?

Thanks.

You may be able to straighten it out using an electricians conduit bender; not perfect but better than what you have now.

Thanks MikeQ - it turns out they may not be bent after all (previous owner installed the poles in 'reverse' (sort of), flipped them around the wrong way, so I am going to try figuring out the correct configuration!

All you need is a small allen wrench and some serious patience. Make small adjustments
