Because the Op has a slightly bigger boat than me but the main is probably the same size

Does anyone know where I can get a cheap jammer/clutch/whatever that would suit 6mm dyneema?
Prices seem exorbitant for all the clutches I've seen. Would a jam cleat do the job? The rope runs along the bottom of the boom which is why I'd rather have a clutch.

Decision made having thought through a whole host of issues and options.
Gonna keep it simple and fit a couple of mast winches and clutches and do halyards from the mast.
Less friction. All in one place. Uncluttered cockpit. Less new deck hardware.
Gonna lead the outhaul, cunningham, pole up and down and kicker back to cockpit to allow tweaking of main.
