The 104 ft boom seems rather short for 4 elements.  This
would be like 26 ft on 20 meters.  I have heard of 3 element
20 meter beams on 26 ft booms.  

Also, if you were going to insist on 4 physical elements,
why not drive the inner two as a log cell and get more
bandwidth?  (Like the 4 element KLM 40 meter Yagi).
