Many boats and larger diesels have primary and secondary filters. There must be a reason.

Our 38 foot boat had twin diesels with primary/secondary fuel filters. I suspected it was because of where you had to fuel up, amount of fuel carried, and the dangers of being stranded. I carried 300 gallons and had to use additives during times when I wasn't burning through a lot of fuel. Those dark tanks half full of fuel love to grow stuff. Been caught in some sudden weather where some type of fuel related power failure could have been a disaster.
