Location: Arena WI | I had a Genisis with the same problem. What I did was mount the transducer with a hose clamp, then I tapped a hole under the head toward the back. I then mounted a retractable key keeper to that hole, pulled out 16-18" and attached it tightly to the cable with a wire tie. When you spun the motor the keeper would extend along with extra cord, when spun back it would retract. I pinched off on my first try because of it being automatic. After that it worked for 3 years with no problems, I can't say that for the motor. I now have a terrova with universal sonar. The gennis was a love hate relationship. I have a feeling they will try again with the terrova.
Good Luck
