Alot bigger than that, comm boats go through fuel alot quicker than big yachts etc. and don't need fuel polishing systems. Fuel polishing systems are good if you're carrying 1000+ gallons of diesel then its rotating between 2 tanks while being filtered constantly.

Anything smaller than that? Not really worth it, throw some stabilizer in there and keep cleaning your filters. You'll be fine.
