I have an ONNO Full Tour Carbon signature and like it a lot. I don't know what his prices are these days but back then, his custom paddle was substantially less than an off the shelf, non custom paddle. As Brad points out, getting hold of Patrick is the only issue. But once I did, he built me a paddle in less than a week.
BTW, West Marine has a lot of electronics on sale. I got a West Marine VHF for sub $100. Waterproof bag $4. The old BoatUS store on Rosecrans still had a big selection (not much left in the big store down by the SD boat landings.)
