Some ops will stack yagis at the top of each crank-up section. 
The 472 has 4 sections, about ~20 foot each 
A two tribander yagi stack of about 72ft over 38ft would work well. 
Some have even gone to the extent of mounting a ringrotor to the 
tower at the top of the second section in order to turn that bottom yagi. 
Other combinations will be useful with monobanders. 
Good luck with your project.

Before I spend the energy moving my 25G 100 miles from one QTH to another, I 
thot I'd ask the question if stacking yagis (only one abt half way up) on a 
UST crankup is a possibility. If yes, then can it still be cranked down? If 
not cranked down all the way, then enough to tilt over?
