I agree. I have 2 x 120mm computer fans blowing into the canopy. Granted that your canopy is not 100% air-tight (duh, who's is?), the warm air will find pathes of least resistance to get out of the canopy.

Some advice, only have you fans pulling air into the hood, as they will last longer. If they suck it out, they wont last as long due to the salt and other harsh environment that it sucks through the fan. Mine are strong enough to blow all the warm air out. You can get the 120v ones that can be wired to a switch, or a 12v one with adapters to plug into a wall, etc.
