Well, here`s just a couple to start with:

Rowing.

Assuming one tonne of lift per oar, twenty oars spread out over thirty two feet doesn`t leave much room between the oars, especially as they`d have to be closer together near the base of the upright.

Towers.

We wont be able to get away with a flimsy structure under present-day regulations. Serious thought must go into their construction.

Where will the oarsmen stand? They`ll need to be above ground level.
