I dunno about the canopy.   It depends on the size of the boat.   If it's
small enough, just use the sail as the canopy.   In a couple of sketches
I did, that was my approach.

The problem with the Typhoon is that expanse of deck and hull forward
of the sail.   The only thing I could figure to do with that was to add
a place for a prone observer.
