Default Compact 40m gain antenna

I have a coworker that would like to put up a 40m antenna on his tower
that has some gain and directivity. I have modeled a few things, and
while they are fairly satisfactory, I wanted to see what ideas the group
had.

The approximate limitations are as follows -

o Boomlength 30 feet
o Element length 30 feet
o Any vertical components are max -10 feet from the plane of the boom
and elements. The reason here is that it's a crankup, and his roof
clearance would be about 10 feet when lowered.

It would be desirable to have both CW and phone covered, but phone only
is ok.
It will need to be coax fed.

Thanks.
