Default Wideband VHF Yagi - Do I have to use a folded dipole configuration?

I'm just about getting around to making my 5 or 6 element marine band yagi,
covering 156 - 162 Mhz RECEIVE ONLY. Do I have to employ a folded dipole or
can I use just a simple hertz dipole as the "driven" element? I'm trying to
get away from using a folded dipole if I can. Any wideband designs out there
that use a simple hertz dipole that I can scale? I'm looking, but if you
have some links aready. TIA.
