If you don’t have great filtration with large capacity to handle crazy shit like a load of water laden fuel, you’re wasting your time.
I had a polishing system and removed it in favor of more stages/capacity of filtration in the main fuel supply system.
+1. As Comodave says, good sequential filtration is all you need. That, and vacuum gauges. IMHO, fuel polishing and the use of day tanks are a waste of time and money. But, mine is just one opinion. I would be happy to acquire a boat that already has a system in place, at someone else's expense, then remove it and sell it all to to fund other needs.
