I have one on my Montauk. I like the piece of mind of having the seperate filter and it was very useful too as it is an easy way to hook up two seperate fuel delivery lines. One goes to my kicker (a Honda) and one to my main (a Mercury). Prior to installing this I made a quick disconnect adapter for the kicker in order to switch the fuel lines when switching motors. Now each motor gets it's own line it's own primer bulb and it's own quick disconnect. Much better for me as I was always forgetting to swap the fuel line when swapping motors.

I like my Racor Fuel/Water Separating and it's on the transom not in the way for me.

Remember, not only does it help remove water, it does filter the fuel.

I vote for having/installing a racor. It is always better to be safe than sorry when on the water.

I have an external filter on my 15 SuperSport because:

a) it came with the boat
Cool it is mounted on the back of the storage compartment so it's not in the way
c) the internal fuel filter on my motor is a pain in the neck to replace, so I removed it
