I'm not sure what counts as "cheap" in your eyes. I'm only paying £18.02 per month (for a 4m boat indoors with a slipway) but that has taken some finding and is not by any means "luxurious". Unfortunately its on the firth of forth rather than the clyde. I did look for options around the A82 area a few years ago and couldn't find anything cheap and secure.
Have you looked at these:

My good deal on the forth is in a small tatty boat yard. I'd guess its possible there is somewhere around the clyde that has the same sort of scruffy little place - but perhaps the sort of place you have to stumble on or find on google earth rather than through a webpage!
