No, not if using on a regular basis.

I bought a boat years ago that had been sitting for two years in the elements, fuel in the carbs and tank had turned to green jelly, a good flush and she was an absolute bargain.

Plenty of fuel stabilisers out there if your worried about stale fuel, but rotating the fuel on a regular basis and frequent use is your best friend, along with a fuel trap and filter lol.
