That engine is already equipped with a fuel/water separating fuel filter, not that it matters much if you are using 10% ethanol fuel, because the ethanol absorbs any water that's in there... If you are going to let the boat sit unused for more than a month, treat the fuel with Stabil marine gasoline treatment. It's the dark blue stuff, not pink.

That said, if you buy fuel at a marina, it may not have ethanol and may already be treated with stabilizer. Ask the fuel seller.
